Price Drops & Sales Impact

See what followed every meaningful price drop

A lower price can create a powerful customer moment. Price Drops & Sales Impact in GoScript Price Drop Alerts for WooCommerce gives you the complete reporting trail for that moment: the price before and after the drop, the alerts accepted from your store, and the qualifying purchases and revenue that followed.

It transforms a simple price change into a practical learning loop. You can see what happened, confirm whether sending is complete, and use the result to sharpen future pricing decisions.

Where to find Price Drops & Sales Impact

Open Price Drop Alerts → Reports. The Price Drops & Sales Impact table appears in the report discovery section below the demand insights.

The table lists observed price-drop events in reverse chronological order, with the newest event first. Use the main report toolbar to choose a period and, when useful, narrow the same view to a product, category, or tag.

What the table records

Each row represents an observed price-drop event for a WooCommerce product in the selected reporting period. It connects the drop with the Price Drop Alerts delivery and attribution records that belong to that event.

The event table includes:

• Product: the parent WooCommerce product associated with the event.
• Date dropped: the date the price drop was observed.
• Previous price and New price: the active item price before and after the recorded drop.
• Price drop: the percentage change between those two prices.
• Emails sent: alert deliveries accepted for the event.
• Purchases after email: qualifying attributed purchases following those alert emails.
• Email-to-sale: the percentage of accepted event emails that later led to an attributed purchase.
• Revenue after email: attributed net revenue from qualifying purchases.
• Status: the current processing state of the event.

Read the before-and-after price correctly

The previous and new prices show the values recorded when the plugin observed the event. The percentage drop is calculated from those two event prices, giving you a consistent view of the movement customers encountered.

This lets you compare how different reductions performed without relying only on a product’s current price, which may have changed again since the event. For sale schedules or later price changes, the event remains a record of the specific drop that triggered its alert workflow.

Understand the event status

Price-drop processing can take time when an event has eligible customer watches to evaluate and deliver. The status column makes that visible:

• Getting ready: the event is preparing eligible deliveries.
• Sending emails: alert processing is underway and deliveries are being sent.
• Complete: the event’s delivery work has finished.
• In progress: the event is in an intermediate processing state.

Use the email sending-status panel at the top of the reports page for a broader operational view of remaining alert deliveries across products. Avoid drawing a final sales conclusion while an event is still being prepared or sent.

What the email and sales results mean

Emails sent counts accepted price-drop alert deliveries for that event. Purchases after email and Revenue after email are post-email attribution measures: they reflect qualifying purchases of the same exact product or variation after an accepted alert, within the attribution window configured for your store.

Email-to-sale divides the event’s converted accepted email deliveries by its accepted email deliveries. When no accepted emails exist, the report shows a dash instead of an artificial conversion rate.

These figures are strong evidence of the customer journey after an alert. They are not a claim that the email was the only reason an order occurred.

Why results can update after the first view

The plugin reconciles relevant paid-order updates and refunds. As a result, purchase counts and attributed revenue can change if a qualifying order is refunded or otherwise updated after it first appeared in the report.

That is intentional. It keeps the event record aligned with the current state of qualifying orders rather than leaving you with revenue that no longer represents the outcome your store retained.

Focus the event history with report filters

Choose Today, Last 7 days, Last 30 days, or Last 90 days in the report toolbar, then optionally filter by product, category, or tag. The event history and the other reporting sections follow that same selection.

The event table displays ten price drops per page. Use its pagination controls to review older matching events without losing your selected report scope.

Use event results to improve the next move

• Compare the size of a recorded price drop with the alert and purchase activity that followed.
• Check whether a high-demand product reached customers’ saved target prices.
• Review processing status before judging the outcome of a recent drop.
• Pair event results with active watcher demand and target-price averages before planning another promotion.
• Use longer reporting windows to see patterns across several pricing moments.
