Measurability – Case Study

A dress boutique lacked a formal system to track performance, customer preferences, or sales follow-up. Stylists operated in isolation, making it hard to build on success or fix gaps in the sales process.

Management had no data on why some appointments succeeded and others didn’t.
Stylists couldn’t track client details like event dates, preferences, or reasons for not purchasing.
No system existed for follow-ups — leading to missed opportunities and inconsistent performance.
Without visibility, leadership couldn’t make informed decisions on staffing, purchasing, or training.

Found that stylists relied on memory or scraps of notes, resulting in forgotten preferences and missed follow-ups.
Discovered that top performers had their own informal systems, while others relied solely on the moment.
Realized the lack of structure was limiting growth, morale, and revenue potential.
Management wanted to help but lacked data to guide improvements or investments.
