the need The Futon Company is a specialist furniture supplier with a number of stores in London and a few others elsewhere in the UK. They needed a website specialist to create their e-commerce store.
full e-commerce facilities We developed the site around the Futon Company’s existing database structure. Replacing a non-interactive brochure site, it increases by eight-fold the number of products available online, and fully automates the ordering process. A database of images automatically places product pictures alongside the relevant product information, and our unique Builder site management system provides a simple method for updating information not on the database.
Our solution also allows the client to initiate e-mail shots, and display stock and order status information.
The site includes search facilities and a neat interactive section allows visitors to ‘build’ their own futon and create room colour schemes. The new site also makes it clear that, despite the name, the Futon Company sells more than just sofa beds.
