In this refreshingly honest episode of Six Figure Systems, Chontelle shares a personal health update that surprisingly mirrors the exact formula needed to grow a successful e-commerce business.

After realising that weight loss was easier when it became a numbers game, calories in versus calories out, she draws the same comparison to business growth. Turns out, growing an online store isn’t about doing all the things. It’s about understanding which metrics matter, knowing your starting point, and measuring what moves the needle.

Chontelle breaks down the only three numbers that matter when scaling your sales: traffic, conversion rate, and average order value and how to reverse-engineer your way to consistent $10k months using a simple (but powerful) equation.

This episode is packed with practical advice, relatable real-life examples, and a reminder that it doesn’t have to feel so hard. If you’ve been spinning your wheels and getting nowhere, this is your sign to pause, focus, and choose ONE metric to improve first.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

If you’re tired of guessing, overwhelmed by your to-do list, and wondering why the sales aren’t flowing, this episode will give you clarity and a clear path forward.

In this episode of Six Figure Systems, listeners are treated to a behind-the-scenes look at what really goes on during a Klaviyo email audit. After recently reviewing eight real accounts, host Chontelle Fossey, shares the most common patterns and missed opportunities she’s seen, and why these aren’t failures, but wide-open doors for growth.

From poor popup performance to skeleton flows and forgotten deliverability settings, each insight is shared with warmth, clarity, and zero judgement.

You’ll learn:

What deliverability actually means, and why your score matters

How to tell if your popup is converting (and what to tweak if it’s not)

Why your email revenue might be low, and how to fix it

The ideal campaign send frequency (hint: it’s probably more than you’re doing now)

The key difference between flows that convert and ones that don’t

How one reusable master template can save hours and boost conversions

Plus, there’s a refreshingly honest take on why low numbers isn’t a problem, they’re simply signals. Signals that point to what’s possible.

If email marketing feels confusing or underwhelming right now, this episode will give you the clarity (and confidence) you’ve been craving. It’s not about doing more, it’s about doing the right things, consistently.

But ignoring your numbers? That’s the fastest way to make a mess.

We’re talking P&Ls, profit vs cash flow, setting up your bank accounts the smart way, and what to do so you’re not panicking when your tax bill rolls in.

It’s finance without the fluff - made for product-based business owners who glaze over at the mention of spreadsheets.

You don’t have to love numbers… but you do need to understand a few key ones if you want your biz to actually pay you.

Most new ecommerce business owners think the answer to more sales is to do more. More posts, more products, more late nights. But hustling harder isn’t a business strategy, and it’s not sustainable.

In this episode of Six Figure Systems, host Chontelle Fossey shares why “doing more to sell more” will only get you so far, why ads and endless learning aren’t the golden ticket, and why showing up on socials alone won’t build a profitable business.

Chontelle explains what a true sales system looks like, one that gets seen, drives traffic, nurtures your audience, and converts them into paying customers on repeat.
