01
Give Aging Full-Run Stock Visibility Before Discounting
Promote healthy-size seasonal inventory that still converts when seen, reserving markdowns for genuinely slow or broken-size lines.
← All appsSell-through Merchandising Agent Overview
01 / PRODUCT OVERVIEW · Operations & growth
Move seasonal and aging stock without defaulting to blanket markdowns.
Seasonal and aging stock sits buried on collection pages until teams resort to blanket markdowns, while promising underexposed SKUs never earn enough impressions to prove sell-through.
Early access — concierge onboardingWho this is for
Small-to-mid apparel and seasonal catalog brands with aging inventory, frequent product drops and no dedicated merchandiser.
How it works in practice
Review Shopify sales, variant stock depth, supplied stock-age cohorts and optional verified GA4 engagement to prepare manual collection-order recommendations. Agree the merchant’s goal, preserve campaign pins and record approval before any changes.
KEY OPERATIONAL BENEFITS
Why teams onboard Sell-through Merchandising Agent
02
Protect Campaign Heroes & Brand Story Constraints
Agree launch-hero pins and assortment constraints, then review proposed demotions for out-of-stock or broken-size products before the merchant approves changes.
03
Review Every Proposed Sort Change Before Approval
The weekly recommendation sheet records the reason, evidence, data gaps and merchant approval for each proposed move. Automated execution and conflict-aware restoration follow pilot validation.

THE OPERATIONAL SHIFT
Before vs. after Sell-through Merchandising Agent
Without Sell-through Merchandising Agent · Manual status quo
Where your team loses hours
- Collections stay on static 'best-selling' sort, burying new and mid-season full-size stock on page 3.
- Founders jump straight to 25% sitewide discounts when seasonal stock ages past 60 days.
- Manual drag-and-drop re-sorting overwrites campaign pins and leaves no record of what changed.
With Sell-through Merchandising Agent · Agreed workflow
How your workflow runs after onboarding
- Collections follow explicit commercial modes: Sell Down Aging Stock, Push New Drop or Discovery Test.
- Underexposed SKUs with intact size runs get controlled top-of-collection exposure before any markdown review.
- The merchant approves each proposed change; automation follows pilot validation and a separate execution scope.
What we configure during onboarding
Collection list, sales and variant inventory export, credible receipt dates or stock-age cohorts, pinned campaign SKUs and optional GA4 item-list event sample.
Fast-track setup: request a guided onboarding call when you apply so we can configure your rules and mappings without requiring production credentials upfront.
Operational guardrails
Shared collection order only — no per-visitor personalization, homepage editing, search replacement, automatic price/discount changes or ad-spend edits. Stock age requires receipt history or merchant-supplied age cohorts rather than product creation date.
Common questions
How does concierge onboarding work?
Rather than dropping you into a generic self-serve setup, we configure rules, field mappings and exception thresholds directly against your store’s workflow before you go live.
Will requesting access create a charge?
No. Requesting access starts your onboarding review. Any paid deployment begins only after you approve the exact scope, deliverables and fee.
Do we need to grant full Shopify admin access right away?
No. Initial rule calibration works with standard exports or a live workflow walkthrough. Marketing updates are completely separate and optional.
