The problem

You don't have a data problem

You have a decision problem. Most tools were built to report. You need something that decides — and then tells you why, in a sentence you can act on before the shop closes.

01

You can't find the next customer

Sales come from the same handful of people. Everyone else on the internet has never heard of you.

02

You don't know where to start

SEO, reels, ads, email, a blog — all of it matters, none of it fits into the two hours you have tonight.

03

Your budget leaks

€300 a month spent on boosts that feel busy and never show up in orders.

04

The data never explains itself

Analytics tools hand you sessions, funnels and bounce rates, then leave you alone with them.

05

Real analytics costs more than the store earns

Enterprise pricing, dashboards built for teams of ten, a monthly fee for the privilege of confusion.

How it works

A weekly rhythm, not a dashboard habit

priorities a week

0

minutes to set up

  1. 01

    Two minutes of honest input

    Your site, your categories, your average order value, your three closest competitors, the channels you already post on. No integration, no code, no CSV you have to prepare first.

  2. 02

    The market gets read for you

    Meridian scans your storefront, compares competitors on public data, and looks for the gaps nobody in your category is filling.

  3. 03

    Three priorities, not thirty

    Everything it found is scored on impact and effort, then cut down to the three moves that matter this week — each with the reasoning attached.

  4. 04

    You log the result, the plan learns

    Orders, traffic, followers. Next Monday a fresh plan arrives, informed by what actually moved.

Scanning the market…Comparing competitor ranges…Scoring impact against effort…Writing your three priorities…

Customer opportunity

High potential

The slow-living tablesetter

Rents a flat with good light, hosts four to six people at a time, buys ceramics in pairs rather than singles. Finds things through interiors newsletters and Pinterest, almost never through ads.

Message that works
"A table set for two more"

Site health

Impact 5 · Effort 2

Fourteen product pages have no description

Search engines see empty pages; shoppers see a title and a price. Every page in your top-selling glaze collection is affected.

Why this is recommended

Product copy is the cheapest ranking input you own, and it also answers the questions that stall a first-time buyer.

Task with draft

To do

Send the glaze story to 412 past buyers

Draft · email

"The ash glaze you bought in spring looks different in every firing. Here are three pieces from this month's kiln — two are the last of their batch."

Why it matters: repeat buyers cost nothing to reach

Sample data from the demo store · competitor and site findings are based on available public information and reviewed by you before they become tasks.

Why Meridian

What we deliberately left out

No traffic graphs at the door. No twelve-tab sidebar. No number you can't explain to yourself at 11pm.

01

Priorities, not dashboards

One page answers the only question that matters on a Monday: what do I do first? Everything else is one click deeper, never in the way.

02

Every recommendation explains itself

Each segment, issue and task carries a plain-language reason and a step-by-step how. Nothing asks for your blind trust.

03

Written for one person wearing every hat

No marketing jargon, no assumed playbooks. If a task needs a designer or a developer, it says so — and offers the workaround.

04

The plan renews itself

Completed work, logged results and fresh market signals feed next week's plan, so the advice gets sharper without you asking.

Monday morning, with a plan
