E-commerce

"The influencer was wearing this model yesterday, it's already sold out." "When will the size she showed in her story be back in stock?" "Her Reel says still available, but your site shows out of stock." Three tickets where an influencer peak + out of stock combines creator expectations and inventory frustration.
The e-commerce post-influencer out-of-stock support covers the creator's worn variant, post-peak restocking delay, back-in-stock alert, alternative, and pre-order. Distinct from general out-of-stock (#106), campaign preparation (#223), and ambassador codes (#575).
This guide #947 deploys the INFLUOOS-SUP policy, flow IO-1 to IO-8, and the INFLUOOS-MAP matrix. Future customer service pair influencer out-of-stock bot (#948).
Summary
Why does the post-influencer breakup generate separate tickets?
A creator's post can sell out a SKU in hours. The customer arrives with a precise mental image: the color worn, the size shown, the "still in stock" promise. When the exact variant is gone, the ticket mixes product disappointment and creator disappointment. Without INFLUOOS-MAP, the agent applies a generic out-of-stock macro without a creator alternative or collab restock delay.
Five typical influencer out-of-stock points of friction
Creator variant OOS: size or color worn in story is unavailable
SKU totally sold out: peak 24-72 hours post-publication
Post still live: active creator content with product sold out
Opaque restock: "when is it coming back after the collab?"
Alternative refused: customer wants exactly the model seen
DTC fashion example
DTC dresses, micro-influencer collab with 180k views, 16 influoos_ tickets/48 hrs. After INFLUOOS-MAP: influoos_resolution_rate 79%, creator alternative sales +28% vs generic OOS macro.
INFLUOOS #947 vs OOS #106, INFLU #223, AMB #575, UGCCAMP #941 and bot #948
Eight stock influencer contents, eight distinct angles.
Quick Matrix
#947 INFLUOOS: SKU variant out-of-stock after creator exposure alternative alert
OOS #106: general out-of-stock across all channels
INFLU #223: frontload support staffing peak
AMB #575: invalid ambassador code distinct from sold-out product
UGCCAMP #941: UGC challenge campaign distinct from SKU collab
SHORTVID #943: find video product distinct from post-click out-of-stock
LAUNCH #114: limited collab launch out-of-stock timeline
Bot #948: pre-order alternative alert bot
#106 = any out-of-stock. #947 = creator peak, featured variant, post still visible.

Which typologies does influoos_* classify?
Action-oriented classifier: variant ≠ total ≠ restock ≠ alert ≠ post live.
Eight INFLUOOS-MAP typologies
influoos_variant_oos: creator-worn variant unavailable
influoos_total_oos: entire SKU sold out post-peak
influoos_restock_ask: restock delay after influencer collab
influoos_waitlist: creator variant back-in-stock alert
influoos_alternative: close substitute for model seen on creator
influoos_preorder_ask: preorder if policy applies after sold out
influoos_post_still_live: active creator content with product sold out
influoos_ops_flag: creator marketing signal to pause/update post
Tags: influoos, influencer_oos, creator_spike, collab_stock. INFLUOOS-MAP-GROUNDED: alternative restock from map only.
INFLUOOS-SUP Policy: agent rules and influencer stock collaborator registry
The INFLUOOS-SUP policy sets post-peak response guidelines without promising restocking outside the creator collaboration registry.
Six INFLUOOS-SUP Rules
COLLAB-REGISTRY-FIRST: check the influencer collaboration registry before the deadline
VARIANT-GROUNDED: creator-worn variant from map only
ALTERNATIVE-OFFER: always suggest alternative_creator_sku if OOS
NO-RESTOCK-GUESS: no restocking date without restock_date map
OPS-FLAG-POST-LIVE: influoos_ops_flag if the creator's post is still active
Handoff #948: brief bot on pre-order alternative alert
Influencer Collaboration Registry Minimum Stock
influoos_collab_id: creator collaboration identifier
creator_handle: customer-facing creator @handle
sku_creator_map: content-worn variant SKU
variant_shown: color size shown in story/reel
alternative_creator_sku: close visual substitute
restock_date: known restocking date or no_restock
waitlist_url: Klaviyo back-in-stock alert
preorder_policy: pre-order authorized true false
post_live_url: link to active creator content
Flow IO-1 to IO-8: post-influencer out-of-stock ticket processing
Eight steps: intake lookup verify classify recover ops log closure.
Flow IO-1 to IO-8
IO-1 Intake: influoos_* intent + creator_handle SKU variant
IO-2 Collab lookup: INFLUOOS-MAP influoos_collab_id
IO-3 Shopify verify: stock variant sku_creator_map live
IO-4 Classify: variant total restock waitlist alternative preorder
IO-5 Respond: macro INFLUOOS grounded map
IO-6 Waitlist: register alert if influoos_waitlist
IO-7 Ops flag: post_still_live → marketing creator
IO-8 Log: KPI influoos + brief registry correction
SLA: influoos_variant_oos alternative_creator_sku provided in one interaction if map exists.

INFLUOOS-GATE tree and creator ops marketing coordination
Decision tree before dead end or invented restock date.
INFLUOOS-GATE
Creator or SKU provided? → collab lookup IO-2
Variant worn OOS? → VARIANT-01 + ALT-01
SKU totally sold out? → TOTAL-01 waitlist
Restock request? → RESTOCK-01 NO-RESTOCK-GUESS
Return alert? → WAITLIST-01 Klaviyo
Pre-order? → PREORDER-01 policy map
Creator post still live? → POST-01 ops flag
Ambassador code only? → reroute AMB #575

KPI, QA and handoff to bot #948
Measuring INFLUOOS detects un-updated post-live and ignored alternatives.
Five INFLUOOS KPIs
influoos_resolution_rate: tickets resolved with alternative or alert
influoos_alt_conversion_rate: alternative_creator_sku purchases post macro
influoos_waitlist_signup_rate: alerts activated / restock requests
influoos_ops_flag_rate: creator post reports still live
influoos_restock_guess_violation: invented dates target 0
Handoff #948
Export INFLUOOS-MAP to bot: priority influoos_variant_oos influoos_waitlist influoos_alternative. Guardrail ALTERNATIVE-GATE brief #948 alternative_creator_sku widget post-influencer.
Edge cases: limited collab, another variant available, gifted creator, BFCM peak
Four cases outside the standard flow.
Limited edition collab no restock
restock_date no_restock: ALT-01 only, no RESTOCK-01 invented date. Alignment with LAUNCH limited collab #114.
Another variant still in stock
VARIANT-01 references variant carried OOS + other colors/sizes available on PDP if Shopify is live.
Simultaneous BFCM + influencer peak
Waitlist priority + alternative. Alignment with viral traffic peak staffing.
Creator promise ≠ product sheet
Not OOS alone: future reroute for content mismatch #949.
Agent training: 20 minutes INFLUOOS
Module: COLLAB-REGISTRY, distinguish OOS #106 INFLU #223 AMB #575 bot #948.
