Company Profile

Alexander M., 35 years old

• E-commerce furniture store co-owner

• 7 years in e-commerce

• Team: 12 people (sales managers, warehouse, logistics)

• Monthly revenue: $250,000+

What Was the Core Problem That Triggered Change?

Definition: Process Chaos

• A state where business operations lack proper tracking and accountability, leading to significant revenue loss and customer dissatisfaction.

"We were growing very fast, and at some point, I realized I was losing control," Alexander explains. "Sales managers would forget to follow up with clients, orders would get lost in the warehouse, and when I tried to investigate

• nobody could give me a clear answer about what went wrong at which stage."

How Did This Impact the Business?

The impact was severe and quantifiable:

• Up to 40% of potential orders were being lost

• Customer follow-ups were inconsistent

• Warehouse inventory status updates were unreliable

• Pre-paid items would occasionally get misplaced

"Everyone was 'busy,' but efficiency was dropping dramatically," notes Alexander.

Previous Control Methods That Failed

The team tried several traditional approaches:

• Excel spreadsheets

• Daily meetings

• Warehouse security cameras

• CRM system

However, these methods consumed excessive time without providing systematic insights. The CRM proved ineffective as managers often forgot to update data.
