Boost Your Ad ROI With AOV

In today’s rising ad cost landscape, getting more from every customer matters more than ever. The key? Lifting your Average Order Value (AOV). Instead of throwing more dollars at customer acquisition, focus on getting more from each purchase. Here’s how to do it:

Steps to Increase Your AOV:

1️⃣ Use Price Anchoring:
Price anchoring plays on comparison psychology. Add a high-priced bundle next to your standard options to make the mid-tier item feel like the smart choice. For instance: $130 for one product, $500 for a bundle of five, and a $2,600 mega bundle. Suddenly, $500 feels like a deal.

2️⃣ Add Smart Upsells:
Leverage AI-powered tools like Rebuy to suggest relevant add-ons based on user behavior. Or add a free shipping progress bar at checkout to push shoppers to spend more. Upsells done right can lead to a 30% boost in revenue, according to the Pilothouse team.

3️⃣ Bundle Strategically:
Bundling is convenient and drives higher cart values. Think starter kits, mix-and-match sets, or “buy more, save more” deals. But don’t guess what to bundle. Use your customer data to build offers that convert and resonate with a broader audience.

The Takeaway
By optimizing AOV through price psychology, relevant upsells, and intelligent bundling, you can make every advertising dollar stretch further. Instead of chasing volume, focus on depth, because increasing what one customer buys is often more profitable than finding a new one.
