Shipping thousands of parcels out of their Melbourne store each and every month, Art Shed is one of the most customer-focused stores in all of Australia.
Every shipment is made with care, ensuring customers receive their art supplies in perfect condition.
Established more than 13 years ago, Art Shed is a family-owned business supplying materials to artists of every level – from highly recognised Australian painters, to emerging artists, people getting back into art after many years, and also to children.
Findify is now complementing this reliable, all-encompassing service. The full Findify suite is now running on Art Shed’s Neto-powered site, improving the purchase journey by helping shoppers find their preferred items quicker and easier.
How does Site Search and Personalization software improve the ecommerce experience?
With the Personalized Search ecommerce tool, there are two aspects – search accuracy, and personalization.
Accuracy is about precision and recall – making the search as smart as possible so that it can return relevant results to the shopper putting in the query. This includes an autocomplete, predicting what they will type as they’re typing, meaning fewer keystrokes for the user.

Other aspects include Natural Language Processing – the search being able to tell the difference between products, like a brush or an easel, and attributes, like the colour red.
An effective search should also include spelling tolerance, ensuring shoppers get relevant results even if they make a typo, and a zero results workaround – ensuring relevant products come up even if the exact query searched for is not present.
Personalization, then, is all about the AI algorithm which analyzes the behaviour of the shopper and learns, in real time, what their preferences are – search results are ranked in order of preference. So, if the algorithm learns the shopper frequently needs led lights, or has a preference for a certain colour, this is what they will see more of.
Findify’s equally dependable Smart Collections solution takes all the same aspects as Personalized Search and applies them to collection pages to ensure products appearing within collections are ranked according to the shopper’s preference, and are not simply a one-size-fits-all static list of products.
