Promote New Arrivals
Customers tend to order the same healthy snacks from us regularly, but also like to mix in some new flavors or other brands to try. We used the “New Arrivals” recipe to automatically add a “New Release” badge to products that were added in the last 30 days so they could be easily discovered. These new products saw a 175% boost in sales compared to previous product launches that didn’t use this strategy.

1. Choose your new arrivals
Since Shopify doesn’t have support for automating the promotion of new items, we can organize them with a product tag like “New Arrival”.
Note: You’ll need to decide when to remove this tag, indicating that the item is no longer “new”. You can streamline this process using Shopify’s bulk product edit feature or with a custom script.
2. Create a new arrival collection
Create an automated Shopify collection based on your “New Arrival” product tag:
As a shortcut, you could link directly to your Shopify ‘All’ collection, sorted by create date to show your newest items first:
