Style, size, width and kept ordersFurther footwear merchandising decisions
Retain the exact model, size and width selected, with the product information shown at purchase. Preserve relevant history when a chart or label changes. Staff can then distinguish an unclear explanation from a choice that did not suit the wearer, without inventing certainty about fit.
Product guidance: Use information applicable to the actual shoe and brand. Another retailer's chart is not automatically a valid replacement. Give the merchant's help route for uncertainty, without turning measurements or labels into a promise that every person will keep the pair.
Stock response: Assign responsibility for advertisements when an important size or width becomes unavailable. The destination and campaign should present the same usable choice. A low click cost cannot supply a promoted variant that customers can no longer order.
Exchange history: Connect the original purchase, replacement request and final outcome. A new fulfilment reference should not become a second acquired customer. Record the actual selection or service reason so marketing can diagnose the relevant product or destination issue.
Review basis: Define how the merchant treats refunds, open exchanges and pending deliveries. The page supplies no invented legal period; use the business's actual appropriate terms. Preserve unresolved cases when comparing sources instead of forcing every order into a final status.
Commercial measure: Compare kept orders with the merchant's defined contribution and acquisition work. Record relevant changes in discounting, product mix or return handling before extending the campaign. These changes can affect the cost basis as well as traffic.
| Order stage | Merchant action | Record to retain |
|---|
| Before purchase | Show the actual variant and applicable sizing guidance. | Model, size, width and availability displayed. |
| During fulfilment | Connect delivery and any exchange with the original order. | Purchase reference, replacement link and issue reason. |
| After review | Assess kept orders with the selected acquisition expense. | Final status, source spending and included work. |
Worked UK footwear acquisition example
Hypothetical merchant example: GBP 1,800 media plus GBP 360 selected sizing assistance and return-processing work equals GBP 2,160. Across 72 kept orders, acquisition expense is GBP 30 per order. Replace these assumptions with the merchant's actual costs and review rule. This calculation is not a FroggyAds customer result or a guarantee of profitable shoe sales.

Research context: The published Clarks Outlet size guide illustrates separate size and width choices; apply the guidance for your actual product rather than importing another retailer's ranges. The Bank of England banknote page supports pound notation only. Neither source supplies campaign results, universal fitting advice or FroggyAds retail features.
