ShopSideK AOV & Bundle Opportunity Audit — Sidekick Production Prompt v1.5

Perform the ShopSideK AOV & Bundle Opportunity Audit for this store.

Goal: determine whether there is credible evidence that an AOV or units-per-order opportunity could reasonably be addressed through a structured multi-unit or multi-product offer. Do not assume a bundle is needed.

1. Scope

Focus only on AOV / units-per-order bundle opportunity. Do not audit the whole business.

Analyze the most recent 90 days. State exact dates, latest order date, orders found and analyzed, exclusions, and recent data gaps affecting confidence. Exclude test, canceled, and voided orders; do not exclude orders solely because they were refunded.

If evidence encountered points outside this scope, label it Outside Scope without investigating that issue.

2. Evidence

Use only store information you can actually access and verify. Where available, examine:

- order composition and items per order,
- same-product quantities,
- products frequently bought together,
- complementary product combinations,
- repeat-purchase patterns,
- discount behavior,
- existing multi-item or bundle-like behavior.

Use Shopify's AOV definition. State the cohort and filters; label filtered AOV and apply consistent eligibility rules across comparisons. Mention refunds only if material to the recommendation.

For important product-pair claims, give order count, unique customers, percentage, and denominator.

Existing multi-item behavior is a positive signal, not a prerequisite for eligibility.

Do not invent metrics, margins, conversion/session data, product relationships, economics, or customer behavior. Clearly distinguish verified evidence from interpretation. Do not treat correlation as causation.

Traffic and conversion data are optional context, never substitutes for order-level evidence. If unavailable, do not reduce eligibility solely because they are missing.

3. Stage 1 — Eligibility

Choose exactly one:

YES — credible evidence supports testing a bundle-style offer.

MAYBE — credible signals suggest a bundle-style offer may be worth testing, but material uncertainty remains.

NO — sufficient evidence is available, but it does not support a bundle-style offer now.

INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE — reliable evidence is too limited to assess responsibly.

Evaluate eligibility before choosing a mechanism.

4. Stage 2 — Standardized Diagnosis

Choose one primary diagnosis:

1. Quantity Break — evidence supports encouraging more units of the same product or closely related variants.
2. Cross-Product / Mix & Match — evidence supports combining different eligible products.
3. Buy X Get Y / BOGO — a reward-based offer appears more suitable than a standard quantity discount.
4. Complete-the-Bundle Upsell — evidence supports pairing an anchor product with complementary items.
5. No Bundle Recommended — current evidence does not support a bundle-style offer.
6. Insufficient Evidence / Outside Scope — evidence is inadequate, or evidence encountered during this audit indicates that the relevant constraint is outside this scope.

Keep eligibility and primary diagnosis consistent:

- YES → diagnosis 1–4.
- MAYBE → diagnosis 1–4 if a mechanism can be reasonably identified; otherwise Insufficient Evidence / Outside Scope.
- NO → No Bundle Recommended, or Insufficient Evidence / Outside Scope if available evidence indicates the relevant constraint is outside this audit.
- INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE → Insufficient Evidence / Outside Scope.

You may mention a secondary mechanism signal when it is genuinely supported by evidence, but keep one primary diagnosis clear.

5. Recommendation Rules

For diagnoses 1–4:

- explain the strongest supporting evidence,
- state the main uncertainty,
- recommend the smallest practical first test.

Do not invent discount percentages, prices, quantity tiers, thresholds, margins, or economics.

If required economics are unavailable, say they must be validated before implementation.

For No Bundle Recommended, explain what evidence or conditions would need to change before reconsidering.

For Insufficient Evidence / Outside Scope, state what information is missing or what issue should be investigated separately.

Do not recommend a Shopify app or vendor.

6. Output

Return the report in this order:

Result

ELIGIBILITY: [YES / MAYBE / NO / INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE]

DIAGNOSIS: [one primary standardized diagnosis; optional secondary signal if useful]

BOTTOM LINE: [2–4 concise sentences]

Evidence Found

List only relevant evidence you verified and briefly explain why it matters.

Interpretation

Separate:

Verified observations

Reasonable interpretation

First Test / Next Step

For diagnoses 1–4, state:

- behavior to change,
- suitable product or product relationship,
- assumption being tested,
- economic or data constraint to validate.

For No Bundle Recommended, state what would need to change before reconsidering bundles.

For Insufficient Evidence / Outside Scope, state the missing information or issue that should be investigated separately.

Missing or Uncertain Information

List only gaps affecting confidence in the diagnosis or test; omit hypothetical or out-of-scope gaps.

Finish with:

NEXT ACTION: [one concise sentence]
