An eCommerce Solution for Hammock Manufacturing Business

Project Goal

The ability to offer personalized products is an added strength for any eCommerce business because a majority of consumers prefer to buy products on platforms where they can customize the products. We got a chance to work with a client who has a hammock manufacturing business and wanted to provide a tailored experience to the customers through a unique online store.

Our goal was to build a unique online store from scratch and equip it with features to provide an impeccable user experience instead of a single, vast experience of the whole product range. Apart from product customization, there were a few more custom functionalities that the client has listed with intentions to expand the reach and growth of his business.

Solution

After conducting the initial sessions to understand his exact requirements, the next priority was identifying the technologies to help us turn them into a fully functional online store. The options were infinite, but we decided to build our backend using Laravel and Frontend using Vue JS.

The motive behind choosing these technologies is to minimize the development time while having added protection from technical Vulnerabilities. Moreover, they are the most trusted technologies to offer impressive visuals and interactions for both store admin and users. Let’s walk through some noteworthy solutions we came up with during this project.

The success of any eCommerce store depends on how effectively the storeowner manages the platform. Keeping this in mind, we built a custom dashboard for our client with a motive to make store management a breeze.

Our team empowered the client to manage crucial things like customers, orders, product inventory, and more in the easiest way possible. Our custom dashboard was also capable of providing insights and reports with just a click.

We integrated the customization features that let the users select different sizes, colors, and more to personalize the products as per their needs. The users can do all these customizations on the product page itself so that we can minimize the time taken by the user from selecting the products to making the final purchase.

Product bundling is undoubtedly one of the most successful strategies that any business can follow to maximize sales. Keeping this in mind, we provided an option to bundle the accessories and more on the product page itself. The product page displays all related accessories, and users can add them to the shopping cart with just a click.

Users are not required to follow the whole buying process again to add an extra quantity of the same product. We knew that minimizing the user journey worked well in the eCommerce industry, so we provided an option to update the quantities of products using a Shopping cart. The total order amount updates automatically once the user updates the quantity.

As PayPal is one of the most preferred payment methods in the countries that the client was targeting, adding it as a payment option was one of the top requirements laid by him. We ensure flawless integration of PayPal on his store to ensure that users can complete their purchases using this payment option conveniently.

As the client’s business was supposed to serve the users in different countries, having multilingual functionality was a major ingredient for its success. We added an option that enables the users to choose and view the store content in German, English, and French.

Operating an eCommerce store in multiple countries without paying heed to payments in local currencies can become a big hurdle for any business. Our client and developers knew it well, so we added functionality for buyers to view prices and make payments in US Dollars, Euros, and Great Britain Pounds.
