Track Your Top 3 Revenue Channels
Where are your sales actually coming from?
It’s easy to assume we know what’s working in our business.
We think:
“I sell a lot at shows.”
“Instagram is doing well.”
“My website is growing.”
But when you actually sit down and look at the numbers… the story is often different.
And that difference?
That’s where your clarity—and your growth—lives.
Why This Matters
As creatives, we tend to spread ourselves across multiple platforms:
Shows and markets
Website
Instagram
Wholesale
Each one takes time, energy, and often money.
But not all channels are created equal.
Some bring in real revenue.
Some bring visibility.
Some just… take up space.
If you don’t know which is which, you can’t make smart decisions about where to focus.
The Simple Exercise
This isn’t complicated. In fact, it shouldn’t be.
All you need is a basic spreadsheet and about 20 minutes.
Start by listing your main sales channels:
Shows
Website
Instagram
Wholesale
Then track:
Total sales from each channel
Number of transactions
Average order value (optional, but helpful)
Even a rough estimate is better than guessing.
What You Might Discover
This is where it gets interesting.
You might find:
Shows bring in the most revenue—but require the most time
Wholesale brings steady income with less effort
Instagram creates engagement—but very few direct sales
Your website quietly outperforms everything
Or… something completely unexpected.
Now Ask Yourself
Once you see the numbers, ask:
Where am I spending the most time?
Is it aligned with where I’m making the most money?
Which channel has the most potential if I gave it more attention?
What could I simplify or let go of?
This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing more of what works.
A Simple Shift
Instead of trying to show up everywhere…
What if you focused on your top 2–3 revenue drivers?
What if your decisions became clearer because you had actual data—not assumptions?
That’s how businesses grow sustainably.
Not from doing everything.
But from knowing what matters.
