Clear WooCommerce Inventory with Targeted Promotions
Moving slow inventory with blanket sitewide discounts trains customers to wait for sales and erodes margins on products that didn't need a discount. Ezhance promotions target only the products you need to move — with Offer Safety Score to check profitability before you publish.
Inventory Clearance Strategies
Target the specific products you need to move — not your entire catalogue. Here are the promotion types most effective for inventory clearance.
Simple Discount on Specific Products
FreeApply a percentage or fixed discount to exactly the products you need to move. Target individual products and variations — nothing else receives the discount.
Best for: products approaching best-before dates, end-of-season items, last-of-line SKUs.
Feature details →Buy X Get X — Move Quantity Fast
ProBuy 2 get 1 free, buy 3 get 2 free. Customers purchase more units in a single order, clearing stock faster without deep single-unit discounts.
Best for: overstocked single SKUs — gifts, consumables, multi-use products.
Feature details →Stock Range Targeting
ProTarget products automatically by WooCommerce stock level — products with stock below 10, below 5, or any range you set. The promotion activates for at-risk SKUs without you manually building a product list.
Best for: stores with many SKUs and regular stock rotation.
Feature details →Buy X Get Y — Pair with a Slow Mover
ProBundle a slow-moving product as the reward in a Buy X Get Y offer. The qualifying product is a fast-seller — customers get the slow mover at a discount when they buy the popular item.
Best for: accessory items, add-ons, or less-discovered products paired with bestsellers.
Feature details →Offer Safety Score Before Every Clearance Sale
Clearance promotions on low-margin products carry the highest risk of loss-making discounts. Ezhance checks the margin of your targeted products and scores the promotion before you publish — including margin safety, stacking risk, and targeting specificity.
See Offer Safety ScoreClearance Best Practices
- Use specific product targeting — not categories — for clearance to avoid discounting healthy stock.
- Set a usage limit per promotion so high-demand clearance items don't sell below cost in bulk.
- Use BXGX "buy 3 get 1 free" instead of a 25% off discount — the effective discount is the same but customers perceive more value.
- Enable sale item exclusion (Pro) on other promotions so clearance items don't receive additional discounts on top.
- Check the Offer Safety Score margin category — if it scores low, your product margin may not support the clearance price.
