if customer.cart_value > 50:
    recommend_premium_version()
elif customer.previous_orders.include_category("electronics"):
    suggest_accessories()
elif customer.browsing_history.show_interest("sustainable"):
    offer_eco_products()
```

**Successful upselling scenarios:**

* **Accessory recommendations**: "For your camera, I recommend this bag..."
* **Bundle offers**: "Save €25 with this set..."
* **Premium upgrades**: "The Pro version costs only €30 more..."
* **Volume discounts**: "Buy 2 and get 15% off..."

## E-Commerce Use Cases

### Fashion & Apparel

**Personalized style advice:**

```
Customer calls about a return:  
"The dress doesn’t fit..."

AI assistant:  
→ Analyzes order history (sizes, style preferences)  
→ "I see you like A-line dresses in size 38..."  
→ Suggests 3 suitable alternatives  
→ "The blue dress is currently 30% off..."  
→ Exchanges the order immediately

Result: Instead of return → increased order value
```

### Electronics & Tech

**Technical consultation:**

```
Customer unsure about laptop purchase:  
"Which one is right for me?"

AI assistant conducts needs analysis:  
→ "What will you primarily use the laptop for?"  
→ "Gaming, office work, or creative programs?"  
→ "How important is mobility to you?"

Based on responses:  
→ Personalized recommendation from Shopify catalog  
→ Comparison of top 3 models  
→ Instant order including setup service
```

### Home & Garden

**Seasonal proactivity:**

```
Spring is coming → AI identifies garden customers  
Automated call:  
"Hello Mrs. Müller, spring is just around the corner.  
Based on your gardening project last year,

40% higher conversion than email campaigns
