In the previous article titled "Smart Home Terminal Retail Market Experience Sharing (1)," we discussed some of the challenges faced by smart home and interior decoration companies. In my view, there are five key issues that need to be addressed first:
1. **Clarify the selling points and value propositions** of smart homes for interior designers. What exactly do smart homes offer in terms of added value? How can they enhance the design experience and provide unique benefits to clients?
2. **Understand consumer behavior**: Are smart homes considered high-frequency or low-frequency purchases? Which partners in the interior design industry show the highest level of collaboration and integration?
3. **Build a strong decoration alliance** to share resources and organize events that allow end-users to experience smart living. Initiatives like group purchases of smart door locks, smart home mini packages, internet-based renovation deals, developer partnerships, and property support programs can help users feel the convenience and benefits of a smart lifestyle.
4. **Establish a solid user reputation** after selling smart home systems and services. Customer satisfaction and trust are crucial for long-term success.
5. **Integrate smart home solutions with current renovation designs** to elevate the quality and standards of interior projects.
All these elements require hard work, creativity, and innovation. To improve customer satisfaction, it’s essential to have a “nail spirit†— focusing on details and not rushing for quick results.
Moreover, the level of professional focus and effort from smart home service providers directly affects their revenue. It’s also important for IoT platform vendors, smart home manufacturers, and system providers to understand user needs and adapt their strategies accordingly. Real-time feedback and product adjustments are critical to staying aligned with market demands.
It’s urgent to make more homeowners and users aware of smart home technology and encourage them to experience it firsthand. Listening to user feedback is vital, not only for manufacturers but also for entrepreneurs and professionals in the smart home space. Partner selection should be based on mutual needs and shared goals.
While building a smart home business isn’t easy, it’s not impossible either. Establishing smart home experience centers, specialty stores, and retail spaces can significantly boost brand visibility and credibility. Relying solely on office visits or existing client networks won’t be enough — it's about actively reaching out and creating value.
**Smart homes must first cater to different consumer trends**, such as smart door locks, security monitoring, smart curtains, lighting control, smart sockets, and more. The development of smart homes should follow a progression: starting with single intelligent products, then moving to scene-based subsystems, and finally full-house smart systems. Only through widespread use and experience can the industry grow and evolve.
Additionally, it’s important to motivate key players in the interior design sector — such as design directors, lead designers, and project managers — who have direct communication with clients and play a critical role in shaping user experiences. Providing reliable services within our capabilities is essential.
Each community requires active engagement, whether through on-site demonstrations or exhibition halls. However, this approach demands significant effort, as interior users are often scattered and highly rational in their purchasing decisions.
One positive trend is that gross margins in the decoration market are shrinking, and high-tech, eco-friendly products are becoming increasingly necessary to improve design quality. Smart and internet-based home design is an inevitable trend.
However, in recent years, the lack of a sound service guarantee system and a comprehensive supply chain has hindered the growth of the smart home industry. Without proper after-sales support and user trust, it’s difficult to build a strong reputation.
Designers are willing to recommend smart home solutions, but they often struggle to find reliable partners. Issues like poor service quality, lack of coordination, and fear of damaging their brand image prevent them from fully embracing smart home integration. Additionally, smart home solutions can increase project costs and involve complex installation and adjustment processes.
Ultimately, achieving user satisfaction in the smart home industry requires years of experience and integration. In the short term, it’s challenging to fully understand user needs, especially when it comes to whole-house smart experiences. Customers need time to develop trust and familiarity.
On the bright side, the potential of the smart home industry is growing rapidly. Over the past few years, several financial developments have taken place, and the industry continues to evolve.
From the above analysis, it's clear that there are huge business opportunities in the smart home sector. At the same time, industry participants must continue to invest, innovate, and push forward the smart home renovation market.
**Doing smart home business means responding to the national call to create a beautiful and happy life.** It requires continuous effort and dedication.
