How to Use the Ishikawa Fishbone Diagram to Understand Low Online Sales

It’s been a year and a half since you set up your online retail store selling books – physical as well as digital. While you attributed the slow sales and low traffic to the fact that the site was new, you’re now beginning to worry. By this time around, you’d have expected sales and traffic to start coming around. And you’ve been thinking and doing a lot of research and making changes here and there as you see fit. But the reason(s) continue to elude you.
That is until you hear about the fishbone diagram. You suddenly realize that in order to solve the sales and traffic mystery, you first need to identify the reasons as to why your website is still unable to draw traffic and sales at the scale you expected.

So you start by collating data from various sources by requesting respondents to fill out a questionnaire. Once done, you then organize them according to the fishbone or the Ishikawa diagram. You now know with certainty what have been the reasons behind low sales and traffic.
Now that sales and traffic are looking up, you’re thinking of a way to ensure that there are no repeats and that everyone in your organization too learns from the experience. So you start out by drawing some lines to replicate the fishbone diagram but then you need the illustration to be shared across the company and feel that it needs to look very professional.
