The Challenge

LSE Retail team found that manual merchandising was taking up a lot of time and the team were unable to keep up with re-merchandising for trends and campaigns. Having used Athos’ Smart On-site Search, the merchant was already familiar with the instant uplift Athos magic can bring. LSE Retail wanted to:

  • Maximise the efforts of their small team – be able to easily and quickly react
  • Automate merchandising yet keep strategic control
  • Produce scalable and repeatable success
  • Make it easier for customers to find products promoted through paid media and PR

The Solution

Athos helped LSE provide a relevant product discovery experience for customers. Athos’ Smart Category Merchandising slotted right into daily and weekly analysis and enabled the team to quickly and easily change tack. For example, quickly boosting sale items prior to Christmas, and then flip the switch to boost new items just after.

We’ve been enjoying using the category insights to inform our paid marketing strategy, which has been delivering fabulous results. Pulling data from Athos’ analytics is so much faster than getting it from Google Analytics.
