On the heels of our latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomreach.com\/en\/news\/2023\/merchandisers-gain-even-more-ways-to-optimize-e-commerce-growth-with-the-launch-of-new-features-and-enhancements-from-bloomreach\"><u>enhancements<\/u><\/a> to our merchandising solution, our relentless pursuit of innovation has led us to introduce <strong>group merchandising<\/strong> and <strong>cloning configurations<\/strong>. These cutting-edge capabilities are designed to enhance your merchandising strategies and streamline your workflow, making it easier than ever to deliver an exceptional shopping experience to your customers.<\/p>\n<h2>Group Merchandising: Refine the Recall Set<\/h2>\n<p>Our new group merchandising feature offers a significant enhancement to our merchandising solution. To understand its impact, let&#8217;s first explore <a href=\"https:\/\/documentation.bloomreach.com\/discovery\/docs\/dynamic-grouping\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>dynamic grouping<\/u><\/a>. Dynamic grouping revolutionizes search results by intelligently grouping similar products based on specific attributes. This enhances user experience, ensures quicker product discoverability, and ultimately drives increased conversions. Consider a scenario where your product offerings include variants differing only in attributes like color or size. Dynamic grouping addresses this challenge by categorizing products under specific groups, refining the recall process, and preventing the overshadowing of other offerings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Example of the group merchandising feature in Bloomreach Discovery\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomreach.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/q3-merchandising-launch_1.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/documentation.bloomreach.com\/discovery\/docs\/group-merchandising\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>Group merchandising<\/u><\/a> takes this a step further by acting as the actionable counterpart to dynamic grouping. While dynamic grouping streamlines product presentation, group merchandising refines the assortments themselves, ensuring that customers encounter the products that are most relevant to them within each group and across each grouping. For example, B2C businesses can organize the category page, \u201cwomen\u2019s &gt; dresses\u201d <strong>by<\/strong> <strong>brand<\/strong>, with a specific luxury brand as the top group. Then, the first eight products within each grouping can be locked using group merchandising. For B2B businesses, search results for the query \u201cdrills\u201d can be grouped by brand and then within each group, products can be ranked by best-performing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Cloning Configurations: Consistency Across Environments<\/h2>\n<p>Say goodbye to the complexities of manually recreating configurations when transitioning from development to production environments or across different accounts. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/documentation.bloomreach.com\/discovery\/docs\/cloning-rules\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>cloning configurations<\/u><\/a> feature empowers you to effortlessly replicate rules and configurations from one environment to another, ensuring a seamless and error-free transition.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A look at the cloning configurations feature in Bloomreach Discovery\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomreach.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/q3-merchandising-launch_2.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This feature isn&#8217;t just about saving time and reducing errors \u2014 it&#8217;s about preserving your meticulously crafted strategies and making sure your internal teams are able to manage more with less.
