Business Challenges
1. Complicated Calculation of Prices for Custom Products
Prices for curtains were supposed to be calculated dynamically depending on groups of products, curtain sizes, square meters, and the number of selected curtains by the clients. A specially designed pricing system was necessary to ensure proper pricing while shopping.
2. Management of Several Sites for E-commerce Business
The client required sites dedicated to the management of content and e-commerce activities separately. Several website management was necessary without harming the general user experience, and thus, a special Magento 2 setup was required.
3. Custom Presentation of Products
Being a company offering numerous collections of curtains and blinds, the client had the need in creating an appealing interface that would help customers to choose appropriate products.
4. Individual Consultation with Customers
Personal consultation with a client before purchasing customized blinds was required to be available to every customer.
5. International Payments & Shipping
Since the client wanted to sell his products worldwide, the system should be provided with the integration of secure payments and reliable international shipping.
