# Pricing Strategy Prompts: Margins and Sell-Through

> Ready-to-use prompts for pricing analysis, sell-through velocity, margin optimization, and data-driven product pricing recommendations for DTC.

<Note>
  Best with: **Shopify**
</Note>

### Sell-through & velocity

> "What's the sell-through rate for our top 50 products? Calculate the time between first and last sale divided by units sold to show sales velocity."

> "Which products sold out the fastest in the last 6 months? Rank by sales velocity."

> "Which products are selling slowly and still have significant inventory? Flag anything that's been in stock for 90+ days with low velocity."

### Pricing analysis

> "How does our average selling price compare across product categories? Show the trend over the last 12 months."

> "Which products have we discounted the most? Show the average discount percentage by product."

> "Identify products where the median selling price is significantly lower than the maximum selling price — this might indicate heavy promotional pricing."

### Pricing recommendations

> "For our top-selling products, analyze whether demand changes significantly at different price points. If a product sells out quickly, recommend whether we could increase the price."

> "Make pricing recommendations for our top 25 products. For each, suggest a conservative, median, and aggressive price point based on historical sales velocity and demand."

> "Which products could we raise prices on without significantly impacting demand? Look for items with consistently fast sell-through even at higher price points."

### Discount impact

> "What's the impact of our promotional periods on customer return rates? Do customers acquired during deep discounts come back at the same rate?"

> "How much revenue are we leaving on the table from over-discounting? Compare full-price vs discounted order volume and margins."

<Tip>
  **Exclude doorbuster pricing from your analysis.** If you run periodic deep-discount events where prices drop to near cost, tell Hazel to exclude those in your prompt (e.g., "exclude any sale price more than 30% below the median price"). You can also add this rule to [Memory](/docs/features/memory) so it applies automatically.
