#OnTheTrain - Progressive Analysis - Part 2

Bonjour Tout le monde!

A great day to be alive! I hope you are well.

Let's Go!

In our last post, we spoke about the need for 'Progressive Analysis' and why. As promised, let's get going with my friend, Tshepiso.

Tshepiso is a clothing designer and a pretty good one at that. She has been doing this business for about a year and half now. I had a chat with her some time ago and asked her some questions about her business.

She has a job, and the business is done on the side. So I wanted to know about how she tracks her finances, and how her marketing processes are, for the growth of her brand. 

By the time we were done talking, she realized that she hasn't put in measures that would help her see whether her business is actually growing or not, and at what rate.
Bookkeeping was not done, and money was spent on a lot of things, which aren't recorded anywhere.


This made checking her progress, difficult to impossible. There are a number of questions she couldn't answer, for these reasons. And so we put together some trackable ways to see where her business is going.

She began to realize that she was spending money on unnecessary things, which dealt a big blow to her bottom line, and this opened her eyes to what she needed to do more, in her progressive analysis of the business.


However, this didn't only reveal matters pertaining to her work, but also herself. The exercise made her see that some of her own personal habits, were contributing to the slow growth of this brand of hers. 

So, in the next post, we will take a closer look at the business owner, and check where the problem might be.
