Retailing

The retail industry is a choice rich industry. Certainly because online consumers often make their own choice, a configurator can help in making the right choice for a customer. In all areas that you will find in the retail category, there is also an online market that often cannot be adequately supported compared to the offline industry. With the CPQing configurator as a basis, knowledge on the shop floor can be translated into the right online choices. There are countless examples of online product configurators to show. With CPQing you have a reliable and very powerful engine for your own product configurator and building a configurator yourself is no longer a job of several months. We are happy to explain how we can quickly help software builders in the retail sector with the transition to online or the combination of online and offline shopping.

Consumer electronics are often fairly impactful purchases that are made based on ones personal preferences. In addition to personal advice, a configurator is a great solution to translate this wish into the right choice / implementation of a device. Indicate your options, budget, wishes, requirements, use and the like and the right choice will roll out. Combinations, discounts and promotions can easily be offered. The CPQing configurator is a perfect basis for offering such products in your own online or offline environment. We are happy to help you decide whether a product configurator is the right choice for your product.

Making choices, putting together the right packages, orders or creating schedules become a lot easier with the use of the CPQing product / sales configurator. Sellers or customers are automatically informed of possibilities and impossibilities are eliminated. Variation is easy to arrange by using algorithms based on specialist knowledge or from information obtained from the customer. Changes can be implemented quickly and multilingualism is also easy to set up. Links with website (WordPress), CRM and ERP systems are easy to establish.

Where there are wishes or different levels, choices must also be made. Choices that again have to be weighed against the options of the provider and the customer. Within education, there are all kinds of choices to be made that ultimately lead to all kinds of documents. Take as an example a list of subjects based on wishes for the future and a book list / materials list based on the same subjects. Within the leisure industry, holidays or activities are a perfect example of customers having a unique combination of how long, what time, on what budget, what time of year, what flight time, which degree of luxury and other such choices. All of these can easily be mixed with the offer. This allows a configurator to provide the perfect holiday choice.

So many people, so many options. In specialty food stores, people make daily choices for menus, products and offers depending on preferences, diets and available base products. A configurator can help with, for example, compiling menus, but also generating shopping lists based on these menus. This can apply to the catering industry but also to retail businesses. Please contact us to discuss the possibilities. We like to help you!

When it concerns home and garden, there are many choices to make, such as colors, sizes, materials, customer’s wishes, future plans, quantity of rooms, children, styles. The involvement is often high, but the vast majority of the knowledge lies with the selling parties. Choices made based on all of the above facets can be perfectly displayed in a (3D) configurator. Impossibilities or, for example, warnings can be given: for example, you have indicated that you want this amount cupboard space in your kitchen and by choosing 2 extra machines you will probably run out of said space. Basically everything that concerns a choice in and around the house and garden can be made transparent by adding knowledge to our configurator, making it the ideal choice aid.

There are often many choices and dependencies when choosing the right clothing, shoes, sports outfits, but also sports equipment. For example, what is the occasion, which color, which size, which application, which playing surface, which level of play, what way of playing, what frequency of use, what load intensity – and these kinds of choices all combine with each other. A tennis outfit for Wimbledon is completely different than for a lawn player on the local tennis court. A product configurator is a welcome decision aid that can combine style, level and occasion through visualization. CPQing can help you determine whether your product is suitable for configuration.

Food stores can benefit from a configurator in many ways. For customers to put together the ideal order for that week or month, but also, for example, by showing the ideal shelf and store design based on the dimensions, possibilities and the offer at the relevant store. We can come up with dozens of applications for this sector. We would be happy to discuss the possibilities and convenience of a good configurator in this industry with you.

What’s in a name: personal care. Many products and / or product combinations within the care sector are chosen by the consumer on the basis of his or her own wishes, possibilities, allergies and, for example, budgets. A configurator can help the consumer to choose the most suitable products for these conditions. This combination makes purchasing easier and faster. The ease of use and customer satisfaction will increase and with this (in all probability) also the turnover and thus the profit. We would be happy to show you how our product configurator can be of use to your industry!

Department stores are often a combination of many of the above industries, so all applications of a configurator could also fit well in this niche market. For example, compiling a walking route based on wishes, interests and shopping list can be an example of using a configurator based on personal variables.
