The main challenge was a low average selling price (ASP), which had to continue providing value to its customers and maintain profitability in order to boost its ecommerce vertical. It’s also important to ensure price parity across online and offline channels.
Our execution: Bolstering online merchandise

- Ensuring a low average selling price
- Expanding the product range without affecting profitability
- Providing value to customers with price and range of options
The results: Facilitating a sharp rise in SMU revenue
SHORT TERM GOALS
- 2x growth in revenue from the expanded range, accounting for 12% of the total GMV
- Greater active participation in events across marketplaces due to increased brand awareness and visibility
LONG TERM GOALS
- Increase in selection month by month with the addition of trending styles in the catalog
- Curate an exclusive online merchandise collection with higher margins and lucrative discounting
Another significant metric that proved the efficacy of our strategy was the steady and impressive rise of the SMU revenue percentage, climbing from 17.03% to 28.93% in FY-2023.
Keeping in mind the importance of product range as well as discounts for India’s price-sensitive customers, Tenovia’s strategic tactics have proved to be beneficial for the footwear brand, leading to:
