Merchandising — Rules2Tag presets
Price, sale, newness and how the catalog presents itself.
Each of these is a ready-made rule you can adopt in one click inside Rules2Tag, then change however you like. Nothing runs until you say so, and every rule can be previewed against your own store first.
13 presets in this category
Products on sale
I want to mark which products are currently discounted
Tags a product whose price is below its compare-at price.
Why: Sale status changes constantly and by hand, so a tag that maintains itself is the point: it removes itself the moment the sale ends, which a manual tag never does.
New arrivals
I want a “new” tag that expires by itself
Tags a product for the first N days after it is created.
Why: Every store wants a NEW badge and nobody wants to remember to remove it. The window IS the expiry — no separate timer, no cleanup job, and no product left marked new for a year.
Product family by SKU pattern
I want to group products by how their SKUs are numbered
Tags a product whose SKU matches a pattern you choose.
Why: Most catalogs encode meaning in the SKU (a supplier prefix, a season code), and a regex reads it directly. Competing tools offer equals/contains only, which cannot express a prefix plus a digit range.
Tag products with their vendor
I want every product labeled with who makes it
Tags every product with its own vendor name, using a dynamic tag.
Why: Vendor is already on the product, but it is not filterable the way a tag is — and a dynamic tag writes the right vendor per product from ONE rule rather than one rule per brand.
Tag products with their type
I want every product labeled with its product type
Tags every product with its own product type, using a dynamic tag.
Why: Product type drives most storefront navigation, and as a tag it also drives collections, discounts and shipping rules — one rule instead of one per type.
Heavily discounted products
I want to find products discounted more than I meant to
Tags a product discounted by at least the percentage you choose.
Why: A sale price is easy to set and easy to forget. This surfaces the ones eating the most margin, and clears itself the moment the discount is reduced.
Bestsellers
I want my best-selling products marked automatically
Tags a product that has sold at least the number of units you choose, in a window you pick.
Why: Bestseller badges are usually maintained by hand and go stale immediately. This one is computed from real order history and drops the tag when a product stops selling.
Price band (entry / mid / premium)
I want to group my catalog by price bracket
Tags a product whose price falls BETWEEN two amounts you choose.
Why: Price banding drives filtered navigation, "gifts under 50" collections, and the ad feeds that read tags. Run it once per band with a different tag — the upper bound is what stops a premium product also carrying the entry-level tag.
Products with several options to choose from
I want to flag products where the customer has to pick a size or color
Tags a product with more than one value under the option name you choose.
Why: A product with real choice needs different treatment from a single-SKU one: a swatch on the card, a size guide, a different returns expectation. Themes and feed apps can act on a tag without you touching template logic.
Products with a particular option value
I want a collection of everything in one color or size
Tags a product that has the option name and value you choose — e.g. Color: Black.
Why: Option values live on variants, so a product-level collection cannot filter by them and a "shop all black" page has to be built by hand and maintained forever. One rule per value you merchandise on turns that into something that maintains itself as stock changes.
Tag every product with its own vendor
I want each product tagged with whoever makes it, without writing a rule per vendor
Tags every product with a tag built from its own vendor name.
Why: The difference between this and picking vendors from a list is maintenance: a new supplier arrives already tagged, and nobody has to remember to add them. The tag is a template resolved per product, so one rule covers a catalog of any size — and a product with no vendor set gets no tag rather than a broken one.
Tag every product with its own title
I want each product tagged with its own name so other tools can match on it
Tags every product with a tag built from its own title.
Why: Some feeds, ad platforms and third-party apps can only filter on TAGS, not on the title field itself. Copying the title into a tag is the bridge — unglamorous, and the only thing that makes those tools able to see a product at all.
Discount band (e.g. 20–30% off)
I want to group my sale items by how deep the discount is
Tags a product whose discount falls BETWEEN two percentages you choose.
Why: A single "on sale" tag flattens a 5% nudge and a 70% clearout into one collection, and they deserve different treatment — different placement, different email, different urgency. The upper bound is what keeps a half-price item out of the mild-discount band.
