Does Growth Suite's Product Report show me which items are added to the cart frequently but have a low purchase rate?

Question

I've been running my Shopify store for two years now, and while our traffic looks good, something's always felt off about our product performance tracking. I know people are adding items to their cart, but not all of them convert. It's like having a leaky bucket – potential sales are literally slipping through my fingers. I'm constantly wondering: Which products are causing friction? Where are customers getting stuck? Are there specific items that look attractive but fail to close the deal? Without clear visibility into these metrics, I'm essentially flying blind. I need a way to pinpoint exactly which products are underperforming – not just in total sales, but in that critical 'added to cart' to 'purchased' conversion journey. My gut tells me there are hidden opportunities in my product catalog, but I lack the granular data to make informed decisions. I'm tired of guessing and want a clear, actionable view of what's happening between product view and checkout.

Growth Suite Product Report: Add-to-Cart vs. Purchase Rate

A high add-to-cart rate with a low purchase rate is a clear signal that the product generates genuine interest but fails to convert that interest into completed sales. This is not a demand problem - shoppers want the product. It is a conversion problem specific to that item. Growth Suite Product Report surfaces these high-opportunity products so you can diagnose and fix the conversion gap efficiently.

Common Causes of High Cart Rate / Low Purchase Rate by Product

Cause	How to Confirm	Fix
Price vs. perceived value gap	Competitor price comparison for same item	Price test, bundle, or reframe value proposition
Insufficient product information	Session recordings showing product page research behavior	Enhanced descriptions, materials, dimensions, use cases
Few reviews	Product review count vs. other items with better conversion	Incentivize reviews, import from other platforms
Size or fit uncertainty	High return rate alongside high abandonment	Improved size guide, customer fit reviews
Being used as a wishlist item	Multi-session repeat viewers who convert eventually	Restock alert, save-for-later feature

Using This Data for Targeted Intervention

Sort your Product Report by add-to-cart count descending, then look at the purchase rate column - products with high adds and low rates are your priority
For your top 3-5 high-abandon products, run session recordings and exit surveys to identify the specific barrier
Apply targeted Product Deals to your highest-abandon products to test whether price is the conversion barrier

Growth Suite: Product Report + Product Deals + Trigger Campaigns

Growth Suite Product Report identifies your highest-abandon products automatically. Product Deals lets you apply targeted pricing to those specific items to test the price-conversion relationship. Trigger Campaigns can then serve product-specific recovery offers to customers who abandoned carts containing high-abandon items, completing the analytics-to-action loop.
