Whether small or large, a company is a complex organization that operates according to its own rules, while being dependent on third parties and its environment: customers, suppliers, partners, State, markets..., some key factors to a successful commercial design, fit out & joinery business can be followed properly.

Thus, the success of a business depends on a very large number of criteria, the importance of which can vary depending on the nature of the activity such as commercial fit out, joinery and the size of the structure or the intensity of competition. The challenge is about not getting lost in these parameters and getting back to the basics of what makes a commercial design successful.

The business creator and the manager must take a step back to analyze their strengths, weaknesses, and identify opportunities; This exercise should be carried out regularly, with the utmost objectivity.

Here are some key success factors of a company according to kea design company, which, combined, will pave the way to success!

1) A good product:

Having a good product is the first key success factor for a commercial design firm. This consists of offering a commercial fit out, range or assortment that meets customer expectations, attractive, qualitative, effective, easy to use or consume. Offering a good product makes it possible to satisfy customers and therefore to build loyalty, or even to trigger word-of-mouth.

The best way to design a good product is to conduct market research to understand customer motivations, especially for commercial fit out and joinery business!

Having a good product also means offering associated services:!

customer service,

after-sales service,

Insurance or guarantees...

Offering a joinery business will allow you to have "good customers", loyal and solvent. Note that it is recommended to regularly measure customer satisfaction through satisfaction surveys of commercial fit out.

Finally, a joinery business is a profitable and future-oriented product, a product that is subject to regular adaptations, or even research and development efforts to guarantee a competitive advantage in the long term.

2) A good price.

The quality-price ratio of joinery business is one of the first criteria for choosing customers. The price positioning must be determined according to the commercial design competition, the psychological price (quality perceived by the consumer) and the financial needs of the commercial fit out (need to be sufficiently profitable given the fixed and variable expenses), here again, market research is essential, including competitive analysis.

3) A good location.

Attendance can vary greatly depending on the geographical location chosen. A good location is a location that captures the flow of target customers, which is easily accessible, attractive, visible, well exposed, but also large enough and easy to arrange.

4) Good communication.

Another essential success factor for a successful commercial design company, good communication makes it possible to attract customers and especially the core target.

To be effective, communication must be consistent with the spirit of the company as well as with the expectations and habits of the customers:

  • communication for the general public,
  • communication on the Internet,
  • Direct marketing (physical canvassing, e-mail, telephone, mail, brochure...),
  • events and press relations,
  • "network" communication.

The most difficult thing will be to measure the return on investment of the various communication operations, something that most companies are unfortunately not able to do...

5) Good organization.

The quality of the organization is an essential key success factor for any company or organization. The organization is indeed at the heart of the economic model and the efficiency of the company: a good organization will result in delivering a commercial fit out and joinery product at the best cost, which will both satisfy the customer and limit expenses. We are here at the heart of the economic, human and financial balance of the company.

An organization means:

the definition and distribution of tasks / functions,

the definition of production, decision-making and support processes,

the choice to internalize or outsource certain tasks or functions,

the use of information systems (computers).

The organization concerns the internal life of the company, but must be customer-oriented to achieve effective joinery.

6) Quality equipment and facilities.

The quality of joinery equipment, tools, premises and facilities is an important factor in the commercial design success. Customers will pay particular attention to this. The company will gain credibility and productivity. This requires investments, if possible, correctly sized and whose profitability will have to be anticipated.

7) Effective staff.

Indeed, the company runs thanks to its staff and skills, experience and loyalty. Human resources management is at the heart of the organization; It requires special know-how and a lot of time spent in management, training, internal communication, motivation... Not to mention the need to master labor law

8) Good partners.

The success of a commercial design company is also measured by the quality of its partners:

suppliers of materials or finished fit out,

Subcontractors

external service providers, including chartered accountants, insurers, lawyers, management consultants, press officers, etc.

The use of external partners is justified whenever it increases efficiency, reduces risk and saves money compared to internal solutions. The most difficult thing is to identify the right partners, and to avoid any appearance of dependence over time.

9) A good entrepreneur.

What is a good business leader? He is not a superman but a man or woman who knows his qualities and flaws and seeks to improve.

The "good" business leader is one who:

  1. knows how to listen to your environment and detect opportunities,
  2. believes in himself,
  3. has a strategic vision,
  4. knows how to remain lucid,
  5. is persevering and patient,
  6. is resourceful,
  7. knows how to surround yourself,
  8. knows how to decide and manage priorities,
  9. knows how to manage your time and money,
  10. has commercial sense.

To become a successful entrepreneur is indeed a lot of challenges. It takes tremendous sacrifice and strength. Many people are successful as entrepreneurs because they have something in them that no one else has. some factors don't all exist such “talent” and “experience”

In producing a fit out, there are several factors that affect the design of the product you are going to create.

Product Responsibility

Product responsibility is an effort offered by the manufacturer to the consumer. This will certainly be an influential factor for the commercial design.

Product Price and Volume

Price is related to the number of products to be made, while volume is related to the size of the fit out offered.

As a prospective commercial design makes products independently, the factors that affect the design of the product above are important notes for you. If the product design is good, then you will be more confident to market it to the public who need your product

Abstract and Figures

Tools for successful commercial design thinking

Commercial Design thinking is a very effective method that you can use in any situation – for products, services, processes, big innovations or small joinery improvements!

An important principle of commercial Design Thinking is user orientation! The focus is on users, customers and stakeholders. Only if you know their requirements, wishes, motivations and framework conditions can you create truly innovative products and solutions. These products and solutions should generate demand and their benefits should differ significantly.

The Design Thinking principles can be applied in everyday work, in every project, in every problem solving or in organizational development to find and develop better and accepted solutions.

Monitoring & Engagement

Observations are also a standard tool of Design Thinking practitioners. Human behavior is observed, during an activity, solving a problem or dealing with a fit out or joinery product.

The situation of the users themselves is experienced or witnessed. Above all, it is about gaining deeper insights, gaining knowledge about the processes and being able to empathize with the customer's situation.

The advantage besides empathy is the deeper insight:

because in interviews customers sometimes don't say what they think,

things are often not expressed because they can be taken for granted or taken for granted.

are not perceived as relevant.

are unconscious and do not attract the attention of the customer himself.

Other forms are:

indirect observation by documenting activities by means of a video

covert observation

Shadowing, where a person is accompanied and observed during everyday activities and experiences.

For the most valuable insights, first observe and analyze the activity, and then conduct an interview for deeper insights.
