about My Smart Deco
Somfy is the world’s largest manufacturer of motors and controls for home automation, with over $1 billion in global sales. The company owns several retail brands, with MySmartDeco serving the remote-controlled blinds and curtains systems market in the Netherlands.
the goal
the challenge
MySmartDeco started as an offline brand, but in 2013 the management decided to expand into online commerce. Previously, the product complexity was seen as a barrier to transitioning the sales process to the online platform, but replacement and parts orders were gradually increasing (simplifying the customer journey) and the MySmartDeco team learned about the possibilities of the Magento eCommerce platform.
Maven verified that the vision of an online store with a consultative sales approach was attainable and was selected as the Magento development provider.

our solution
To meet the unique business needs of MySmartDeco, Maven used the PSD file provided to create a custom online store theme. Several bespoke extensions were also developed to enable multiple product filters by product features and colors, to dynamically update multi-product orders pricing with discount information, and to accommodate several types of order flow scenarios.
Administrative functionality was also integrated with stock keeping and fulfillment systems, automating most information exchange.

the result
The MySmartDeco website is both feature-rich and easy to navigate. Initially, online sales were modest, but visit quality was very high, indicating that customers were using it as a product research tool, resulting in more informed customers at the offline stores.
When MySmartDeco added a product line with the self-installation option for the main product category, online sales jumped and the ROI followed.

And we are completely satisfied with the quality of work, terms, and quality of service. Thanks to a dedicated account manager!

It is only on very rare occasions that an individual comes along that leaves a lasting impression with their dedication and work ethic. I have to say that Sergey is one such person. Sergey’s dedication to the project has been faultless and he has worked with outstanding professionalism throughout.

Product Manager at Printkick Ltd
When we looked at Maven as part of our selection process and had our first meeting, it was clear that you were the best fit for our company. We looked for people who cared about the project, the mission and had the technical skills to bring it all together. You made us confident we could do it. At times during the project, I was worried. Had we attempted too much in one go? Everything seemed even more complicated than when we had our meeting a year ago in Kiev. Lots of things started breaking. Thankfully, each time we hit this point, it only took a few calls to get back on track and under control. Honesty, compromise, and pragmatism are some of the key factors I have found in completing successful projects, and we made the right choice because these are your values too.
