What should you do next month?

Once a month your Analyst reads your numbers, your staff reports and what customers said. You get a plain review with three recommendations.

A review is advice based on what you share. It is not financial, tax or legal advice, and it cannot see what you do not tell it.

How a review is made

Everything it says comes from the information in your office. If a number is missing, it asks.

What a review looks like

Short, plain and ready to act on. Each recommendation can become work for one of your staff.

October review: Rocket Bakery (example)

What happened

  • Orders rose 14% on last month.
  • Most questions were about delivery to Surabaya.
  • Two 3-star reviews mention late deliveries.

Why it matters

Customers like the cakes but worry about timing. That is the most likely reason some do not order again.

Three recommendations

1
Add delivery times to every product post.
Hand to Content drafts
2
Offer pre-orders for weekend cakes.
Hand to Orders & inventory
3
Reply to the two 3-star reviews with a fix.
