Finding friction in your business starts with listening to the clues your business leaves every single day - because your business is constantly talking to you through every click, question, abandoned cart, and client conversation. In this third episode of the observation series, Wendy turns the detective work outward to investigate the business itself. Learn how to collect the right evidence from four key sources so you stop jumping to wrong conclusions and start making decisions that actually solve the right problems.
Today, you will walk away with…
✔ Why finding friction is feedback, not failure: people abandoning your checkout page isn't automatically a pricing problem - it's a clue that could point to confusing process, technical issues, or unclear messaging (same result, completely different solutions)
✔ Four business clues to investigate: friction (where is the heaviness hiding in one specific part of your process?), systems (what your calendar, onboarding, and organization are telling you), customers (the questions they ask before and after buying reveal what matters most), and numbers (revenue, open rates, and conversions are observations, not report cards)
✔ Why one result is never enough: one quiet launch, one unsubscribe, one refund isn't a pattern - but three launches where people stop at the same point absolutely is, and patterns are where real improvement lives
✔ Why success leaves clues too: when an email gets unusually high open rates or someone buys immediately, stop and ask why just as often as you investigate what went wrong
