Front Line Trend #1: Developing an Effective Catalog System to Save Time
The importance of curating your interior upgrade selections is critical to the homeowner experience and sales process efficiency. Builders must produce interior upgrade catalogs by each model home offered, to effectively organize this information. Whether in digital or print format, production builders realize that based on each model type offered, their vendors could only provide certain styles for a specific floor plan. The builder must control what upgrades the homeowners can see in order to prevent customers from falling in love with an upgrade package that does not work with their selected floor plan or model. Creating a type of cataloging system that showcases top selling upgrades is the best solution for most production builders. Digitizing this catalog can drastically reduce production/printing costs, and simplify updates to the product information (especially pricing and availability) in addition to the significant time savings.
