The Challenge
Wonderly Lights—named a 2024 Entrepreneur Top New & Emerging Franchise—wanted every holiday‑lighting consultation to feel magical. Franchisees needed a way to capture a customer’s home, apply décor options on the spot, and adjust designs together in real time. Without a digital tool, designs were hard to visualize, slowing approvals and limiting upsell opportunities.
The Solution
TechArk designed and built a user‑friendly iOS app that lets franchisees photograph a property, layer on lights, wreaths, and garlands, and fine‑tune colors or placement with a simple drag‑and‑tap interface. Real‑time rendering shows clients an accurate “after” image before installation.
An intuitive workflow ensures consultants of any tech skill can:
- Snap a photo and auto‑scale the canvas
- Add pre‑built lighting elements or free‑draw custom strings
- Save, share, and revise designs during follow‑up calls
First 30 Days – Performance Snapshot
- 100+ franchise locations onboarded
- 400 design sessions created
- Average consult‑to‑sale time reduced
The Results
Franchisees now open customer meetings with the app, turning design into an interactive experience that excites homeowners and speeds buying decisions. Early feedback reports higher close rates, larger average orders, and a streamlined path from consultation to installation.
