FAQ

Collect all frequently asked questions in one place on your e-commerce site. A good FAQ site can give you both happier customers and better rankings on Google. Gather the most common questions that visitors or customers ask, as well as answers to these.

Micro-trends

Influencers can boost your brand, increase sales and reach out directly to your target audience in a way that has never been possible before. Your e-commerce conversion rate is dependent on this. To try to track everything, and control your merchandising in real-time, is almost impossible. Your merchandising needs to be highly automated, and react to this influence. The more relevant your products are, the more you can increase your sales. Show the right products, at the right places, at the right times.

Virtual Try-on

Let your customer see what your products would look like when placed in their homes. Present your products in a customised and personalised way. Use of 3D visulation tools on your e-commerce site gives your customers the ability to visualise your products in their homes from the comfort of their own homes.

Collaborate with professional decorators

It is a good idea to collaborate with talented decorators. Let them decorate with your products and show the results on their social media channels such as Youtube and Instagram.
