Bundle & Save: Odoo’s Smart Promotions to Boost Sales and Clear Stock

Imagine this: Your warehouse has a few slow-moving products gathering dust while your bestsellers fly off the shelves. You know those stagnant items still have value—if only you could get customers to notice them. What if there was a way to turn slow sellers into profit generators while keeping shoppers happy?

That’s where Odoo’s smart promotion tools come in. By bundling less popular items with your hottest products, you can clear inventory faster, increase average order value, and delight customers with irresistible deals. It’s a win-win strategy—and today, we’ll break down exactly how to make it work for your business.


Why Bundling Works (And Why You Should Try It)

Bundling isn’t just about dumping unwanted stock—it’s a proven sales tactic with multiple benefits:

Move Slow Sellers Faster – Attach stagnant inventory to popular items to increase visibility.
Boost Order Value – Customers spend more when they perceive extra value.
Enhance Customer Satisfaction – Shoppers love feeling like they’re getting a great deal.
Reduce Storage Costs – Clearing old stock means less wasted space and capital.

Odoo’s promotions and discount rules make bundling effortless. Let’s explore how.


How Odoo’s Promotion Tools Help You Bundle Like a Pro

1. Create Attractive Product Bundles

Instead of discounting slow-moving items (which can hurt margins), pair them with bestsellers in a single enticing offer.

Example:

  • A laptop (bestseller) + a mouse (slow-moving) = "Complete Workstation Bundle" at a slight discount.
  • A shampoo (popular) + conditioner (not selling well) = "Haircare Duo Deal."

Odoo lets you set fixed bundles or dynamic discounts (e.g., "Buy 1, Get 1 50% Off").

2. Automate Discount Rules

No manual coupon codes needed! Odoo’s automated promotion engine applies discounts when customers meet your conditions, such as:

  • "Buy X, Get Y Free" (e.g., Buy 2 shirts, get a free tie)
  • "Spend $100, Get 10% Off" (encourages larger purchases)
  • "Bundle Discounts" (e.g., Laptop + Bag = 5% off total)

3. Track Performance & Adjust Strategies

Not all bundles will be instant hits—and that’s okay. Odoo’s sales analytics show:

  • Which promotions drive the most revenue
  • Which products pair well together
  • Customer response to different discount types

This data helps you refine future promotions for even better results.

Final Tip: Test, Optimize, Repeat

Bundling isn’t a "set it and forget it" strategy. The key to success is:

  1. Start small – Test one or two bundles first.
  2. Monitor results – Use Odoo’s reports to see what’s working.
  3. Tweak & expand – Double down on winning bundles and adjust weaker ones.
