76 How Interior Design and Renovation Merchants Can Use WeiCity: From Design Showcase to Project Consultation

From Design Showcase to Project Consultation

“Can you help me design my new home?”

“Is it possible to do design only, without construction?”

“About how much budget does this space need?”

“Can the space be replanned around existing furniture?”

“What materials should I prepare before renovation?”

Customers looking for interior design and renovation services are often still organizing their ideas. Some already have floor plans, some have only saved photos of styles they like, and others need to first understand the relationship between design, construction and budget.

🏪 Which merchants are suitable?

✅ Interior Design Studio

Showcase space planning, design concepts and the scope of design services.

✅ Home Renovation Team

Introduce the renovation projects you actually undertake and your construction arrangements.

✅ Commercial Space Design Team

Showcase design services for offices, shops or other commercial spaces.

✅ Kitchen and Storage Planning Team

Explain space planning, cabinet design and related coordination services.

✅ Soft Furnishing and Space Styling Consultant

Showcase services covering furniture, lighting, curtains and color coordination.

✅ Renovation and Partial Remodeling Team

Introduce the partial updates or space adjustment projects you actually undertake.

📌 Design and construction scope, team qualifications and types of projects undertaken should be described according to actual circumstances. Different projects need to be assessed based on site conditions.

You can organise content according to client needs:

🔹 Space Planning and Design

Introduce site measurement, floor plan layout, design concepts or drawing services.

🔹 Whole-Home Renovation

Explain the scope of projects the team undertakes and how cooperation works.

🔹 Partial Renovation

Introduce remodeling services for kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms or other partial spaces.

🔹 Commercial Space Design

Explain projects for shops, offices or other commercial spaces.

🔹 Soft Furnishing and Furniture Coordination

Showcase services such as color, furniture, lighting and styling recommendations.

🔹 Project Coordination and Construction Follow-Up

If provided, explain the work responsibilities and communication methods.

💡 Present the projects the team undertakes most often first, then add different space types and service categories.

Each case can be organized as follows:

🔹 Project Type and Space Purpose

🔹 The Client's Original Needs

🔹 Scope of Design or Construction Services

🔹 Main Materials Used or Coordination Direction

🔹 Photos of the Completed Space

🔹 Actual Constraints in the Project and How They Were Resolved

💡 You can introduce cases in the order of "Needs—Solution—Results" so customers can understand exactly what the team did.

📌 Permission should be obtained before publishing photos, addresses, floor plans or personal information of clients' homes. Case images should match the actual project.

You can ask customers to provide:

1️⃣ Type of Property or Space

For example, a new home, resale property, shop or office.

2️⃣ Approximate Area and Spatial Layout

If a floor plan is available, it can be provided as an image or file.

3️⃣ Areas to Improve

Explain which spaces need design or renovation.

4️⃣ Reference for Preferred Style

You can provide images and describe preferred colors, materials or atmosphere.

5️⃣ Budget Range and Timeline

Indicates the expected budget, move-in date, or opening date.

6️⃣ On-Site Photos and Address

Helps the team understand the space and service area at an early stage.

📌 Initial information helps clarify needs. Detailed design and quotes usually still require discussion or an on-site assessment.

Renovation costs may be affected by area, materials, site conditions, design scope, and construction work.

Suggested content:

✅ Design or construction items included in the quote

✅ Material brands, specifications, or selection methods

✅ Whether demolition, transportation, and cleanup are included

✅ How dimensions are confirmed for custom items

✅ How additional work is handled and priced

✅ Quote validity period and payment arrangements

✅ How changes are recorded and confirmed

🔶 For example:

“The preliminary budget needs to be checked against the space area, design scope, material selection, and site conditions. Once the project content is confirmed, we will list the work included in the quote and any possible additional costs.”

📌 Before the client confirms, check the quote, materials, construction scope, payment milestones, and estimated timeline.

You can explain it according to your actual way of working:

🔹 Initial Communication

Understand the space, needs, style, and budget.

🔹 On-site Visit or Information Review

Confirm site conditions and project scope.

🔹 Design and Quote Discussion

Discuss the plan, material selection, and cost details.

🔹 Confirm the Project and Timeline

Both parties confirm the scope, payment arrangements, and estimated duration.

🔹 Construction and Progress Updates

Update on-site progress and items requiring confirmation as agreed.

🔹 Completion Inspection and Handover

Check the completed work and explain how to get in touch afterward.

💡 If different services follow different processes, the steps for design services and construction services can be explained separately.

Suggested content:

🔹 How the expected start date is confirmed

🔹 Which site conditions may affect the schedule

🔹 What the client needs to cooperate on during construction

🔹 How material deliveries or changes are communicated

🔹 Construction hours and site access arrangements

🔹 How delays are notified and coordinated

📌 The schedule should be based on on-site assessment, material supply, and the project arrangement confirmed by both parties.

💡 To start, you can add service categories, representative cases, and consultation materials first, then gradually add common questions.

🔶 Client asks: “Can you help me renovate my new home?”

You can reply:

“Hello, here you can find our service scope and project examples. Please tell us the property type, area, the areas you want to renovate, and your expected timeline, and we will then confirm the most suitable consultation method.”

🔶 Client asks: “Can I just get a design?”

You can reply:

“Please first review the service information in the channel. You are also welcome to tell us the purpose of the space, floor plan, and design needs, and we will confirm the services we currently offer.”

🔶 Client asks: “About how much does renovation cost?”

You can reply:

“Costs vary depending on area, construction scope, materials, and site conditions. You can first share photos of the space, the floor plan, and your budget range, and we will then discuss the next assessment and quote.”

1️⃣ Basic team information

Name, service area, contact details, and working hours.

2️⃣ Main Service Items

Explain the actual scope of design, construction, renovation, or soft furnishing work.

3️⃣ Representative Project Cases

Prepare clear photos and a brief project introduction.

4️⃣ Cooperation Process

Organize the main steps from consultation to completion and handover.

5️⃣ Inquiry Information Checklist

Tell clients to prepare floor plans, photos, area measurements, and budget range.

6️⃣ Quote and Timeline Explanation

Explain the items to be assessed and how they will be confirmed.

✅ Is the service scope clearly stated?

✅ Have the case images been licensed for use?

✅ Have the items included and excluded from the quote been explained?

✅ Has it been noted that the timeline must be confirmed based on actual conditions?

✅ Are the construction and payment processes easy to understand?

✅ Are the contact details correct?

After organizing service details, project cases, and consultation materials in the channel, you can use them to reply to clients, introduce team services, and carry out day-to-day promotion.

Clients can first learn which projects the team takes on, then provide space layouts, on-site photos, and renovation goals; merchants can also use this to continue confirming the service scope, assessment method, and quote arrangements.
