I'm about to open an online music instrument store, and building the store has been challenging due to several changes in programmers during the process and numerous delays. However, I can now finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.
We've all been there drowning in dashboards, buried in Notion docs, pinged in Slack threads, and still no clarity. As someone who's spent years working in ops and product, I'm constantly surprised at how hard it is to get a clean, real-time picture of what's actually going on in the business.
Why do we still need 4 tools and 5 people to answer simple questions like What s driving churn? or Are we hitting our sales targets?
Curious how others are thinking about this. If you're an operator, PM, or founder how are you solving this internally? Have you found workarounds or is it still duct tape + gut feeling?
