It is important to create a smooth customer experience, as it significantly affects the probability of the customers purchasing a product. A website that is clear and easy to navigate will encourage customers to stay and explore more of your site. On the other hand, if your customer finds it hard to find a particular product, it will take them less than a second to leave your store. Therefore, displaying your products in a neat and concise manner can make all the difference in deciding whether or not your customer stays.

Lucky for you Boutir users, you can efficiently categorize your products on your store to 3 different levels for Business and Business PLUS Plan users! This ensures that your customers can find exactly what they are looking for with no trouble.

*For Starter Plan users, you can add 1 level of product classification.

In order to set up these categories, you can do so through both the Boutir app and Boutir’s CMS desktop.
