Case Study: Sam’s Furniture boosts search conversion with Fast Simon InstantSearch+

More than 1,000 custom fields and filters to search by

Sam's Furniture, a family-owned furniture and appliance retailer in Texas, faced challenges managing its large online inventory of over 9,000 products with numerous categories and filters. They needed a powerful search solution that could index their more than 1,000 unique custom fields to help customers find what they were looking for. They turned to Fast Simon and its InstantSearch+ product for a solution.

Fast Simon implemented a customized setup of its search and autocomplete service, which included showing product images in the dropdown menu. This solution provided a relevant, self-learning, and fast search experience. The results were significant, with Sam's Furniture reporting a 7X increase in conversion rate from search users and a 10X higher conversion rate specifically from mobile search shoppers compared to mobile browsers. Fast Simon's implementation also led to an increase in traffic to their physical stores.
