Website: Package Builder

📝 Title: Website: Package Builder
Created by: Katie
Feedback from: Brooklawn & Michael

🐞 Problem:
There is currently no way for customers to manually create or browse appliance packages directly on our website.

⚠️ Why is this a problem:
Without a package builder, customers can only view individual products, making it difficult to explore complete appliance sets that fit their preferences or budget. Competitors like AJ Madison already offer this feature, giving users a more guided shopping experience with quick filtering options that help them find compatible appliance bundles faster.- HUGE ASSISTANCE FOR SALES PEOPLE —- (THE REAL REASON FOR THE REQUEST)

✅ Solution:
Develop a Package Builder section on the website that mimics the functionality and layout of AJ Madison’s.

• Add a “Packages” option in the main website navigation bar.

• Display filter options on the left-hand side, including:

  • Price range/stage

  • Included items count (e.g., 2-piece, 3-piece, 4-piece, etc.)

  • Fuel type

  • Dimensions

  • Key features (e.g., Sabbath Mode, Energy Star, etc.)

• The user experience, design layout, and filtering functionality should replicate AJ Madison’s package builder closely, as it is proven effective and user-friendly.

• Katie will provide reference images of AJ Madison’s package builder for visual guidance.

🚀 Phase 1:
Research AJ Madison’s package builder thoroughly and outline required data points and filter categories.

🚀 Phase 2:
Design the UI mockup to match AJ Madison’s structure with AIO’s branding and data structure.

🚀 Phase 3:
Implement front-end filtering and connect it to product catalog data.

🚀 Phase 4:
Test and QA with sample packages before rolling out to clients.
