Hello,
We were at the fort kinnaird Leith Collective shop yesterday and bought a pair of handmade earrings. We were looking to find the maker as unfortunately the box didn't include the name and we wanted to look at other earrings they had/follow and support on socials.
They are patina brass, I've included an image. If anyone knows the maker could you let me know?
I've been helping a friend who runs a few convenience shops around Edinburgh. The tills record every sale, but most big decisions still come from gut feel: what to stock more of, when to run offers, which shop needs attention, whether it's worth opening another.
I've started a small side project to turn the data he already has into a simple weekly view of what's growing, what's slipping, and where the opportunities are.
For anyone running a shop, café or small business here: what do you base decisions like these on, and what numbers would you actually want in front of you each week?
Happy to share what I learn.
