Bundle Classification¶
Bundles are classified by their primary design intent:
1. Logical Grouping Bundles¶
Product-Units that naturally belong together for functional or operational reasons.
Examples: - Battery + Charger + Installation - Motorcycle + Registration Service - Vehicle + Basic Accessories Kit
Characteristics: - Components have strong interdependencies - Rarely sold separately in practice - Simplifies inventory and fulfillment
2. Value Proposition Bundles¶
Created to address specific customer use cases or economic incentives.
Examples: - Starter Kit Bundle (complete new customer setup) - Delivery Driver Pack (commercial use optimization) - Multi-Battery Efficiency Bundle (high-usage customer)
Characteristics: - Tailored to customer segment needs - Provides economic discount vs. individual purchase - Addresses complete workflow or use case
3. Channel-Specific Bundles¶
Optimized for specific sales channels or distribution models.
Examples: - Agent Sales Starter Package - Franchise Standard Inventory Bundle - Self-Service App-Only Bundle
Characteristics: - Matches channel capabilities and constraints - Simplified for channel training - Pre-configured for channel pricing rules
4. Mission/Use-Case Bundles¶
Designed around specific customer missions or operational scenarios.
Examples: - Last-Mile Delivery Bundle - Ride-Hailing Professional Bundle - Rural Area Extended Range Bundle
Characteristics: - Addresses complete operational need - May include specialized configurations - Higher value, longer decision cycle
Bundle Hierarchy¶
Bundles can contain: - Base Product-Units (atomic elements) - Other Bundles (nested bundles for complex offerings)
Caution: Avoid excessive nesting (max 2 levels) to prevent: - Obligation tracking complexity - System performance issues - Agent confusion - Customer misunderstanding
