Q4 174.09
Observations/Insights
• Avg number of days for shipping has continuously increased which would of course lead to
dissatisfaction among customers. This could to be one of the prime reasons for declining
trend across customer rating, revenue, and overall poor business performance over time.
• It can be clearly observed that shipping service has been deteriorating overtime and shipping
time has almost gone up by300% which is clearly not a good sign
Insights and Recommendations.
• Business is certainly suffering in almost all parameters like declining trend in
Revenue, # of orders, customer rating & ~300% increase in Shipping time which
are clearly not good signs for business sustainability perspective.
• Company should reconsider strategic partner for shipping, 1000 orders have been
handled by more than ~350 delivery/shipping partners which does not seem to
be working out, business need reliable & efficient shipping partners.
• Majority of the JCB credit card customers are placing order, business can relook
offers provide to JCB customers to attract more customers.
• Maine; Wyoming & Vermont are among the least buying state, business may want
to refocus on these states to see how they can run promotional offers to attract
customers from these states or may want to close operations in these states to
enforce focus on other best performing states.
