Archizy

1. A Ab bo ou ut t A Ar rc ch hi iz zy y At Archizy, we have created an online directory showcasing architectural materials and products for design professionals, contractors and other buyers to find the ideal product for their project without any hassle. In addition to this, users can also learn more about the manufacturers through their brand page, submit requests directly to manufacturer, create mood boards for projects etc. Moreover, Archizy provides a platform for manufacturers to showcase their brand and products in front of a wide audience, get direct enquiries, gather customer feedback, run promotion campaigns on Archizy’s website, social media channels, newsletter etc. to maximize reach and generate leads. W Wh hy y A Ar rc ch hi iz zy y  Sampling and selecting materials for construction projects through offline channels is quite time consuming and counterproductive.  Offline market is limited by the buyer’s geographical reach and most of the buyers end up selecting materials which are available locally and miss out on discovering a wide range of options available in the market.  While sourcing materials through offline channels, design professionals have to approach different retailers and because of how fragmented and opaque the offline market is, they have to waste an incredible amount of time to obtain detailed product description, samples or technical sheets.  There is no such online platform which showcases a wide range of architectural products in different categories all at one platform. Buyers are forced to find what they are looking for by browsing through a long list of websites of different manufacturers and then locating retailers in their locality to get product details or samples.  There are various small scale manufacturers producing high quality products but they can’t reach a wide audience because offline market chain is very fragmented and requires a huge investment to create a retailer network and advertise the same.  Manufacturers use their social media channels to promote online but it does not result in efficient sales conversion due to bifurcated audience of social media. Also, users might not use social media for the purpose for searching building materials.
