Measured in AskSpot across 2,438 chats over 30 days. Fewer chats end in a sale here than at a parts shop — but two thirds of the orders are a single item, and that item costs as much as a holiday.

Before AskSpot
A pergola is not an impulse buy
Garden furniture is bought sight-unseen, assembled by the buyer, and then left outdoors for years. That combination produces a very particular kind of question: how many louvre panels does a four-metre wall need, will the resin cabinet survive a Polish winter, is 110 kg the limit per person or for the whole sofa, will the roller blind from one pergola series fit another. None of it is answered by the photograph.
They are showroom questions, asked about a €600 purchase, and 57% of them arrive after the office has closed — in the evening, on the terrace the furniture is meant for. Season makes it worse: a shopper who wants the set for the weekend cannot wait until Monday for an answer about Friday delivery.

Rollout
How they rolled it out
One module, three jobs — added in the order a shopper meets them: find the thing, be convinced it will survive, then be sure it arrives in time to matter.
Step 01
Magento Catalogue Feed
From a vague brief to three real options
All 5,470 products came in from Magento with dimensions, materials, colours and stock. Shoppers describe a space and a budget rather than a product name — twelve people to seat, a terrace of a given size, a ceiling on price — and the agent turns that into three real options.
What shoppers ask
- A table and chairs for twelve people
- A garden set with an unusually soft seat
- Why is one pergola twice the price of the other?
Step 02
Spec & Compatibility Grounding
Modular catalogue, matched part by part
Panel widths, load ratings, frost resistance and which accessory belongs to which series were pulled into the same answer — so the agent can say a 123.5 cm panel means three for a 4 m wall, and that a PRIMARY blind does not fit a Premium pergola.
What shoppers ask
- Can this cabinet stay out on the terrace over winter?
- Is 110 kg the limit per person or for the whole sofa?
- Do you sell the chemical anchors for mounting it?
Step 03
Stock, Dispatch & Order Access
The questions that close a seasonal sale
Live stock, the 24-hour dispatch rule, courier terms and order status. Delivery is the second-largest topic at 19.3% — in a season measured in weekends, “will it be here by Friday” is the question the sale rests on.
What shoppers ask
- If I order this table now, will it ship tomorrow?
- Can I book a specific delivery day?
- Will this set be back in stock, or should I pick another?
From real conversations
What Focus Garden shoppers actually ask
Specs, delivery terms and which-one advice are 57% of everything asked — the three things you need settled before spending €600 on something that will live outdoors all year. Behind them sits a second story: accessories and compatibility. This catalogue is modular, so a large share of chat is "will this part fit the thing I already own".
