Objitec Business Metrics & Progress Report December 2017
First off, and a little late I know but I’d like to wish you all a happy new year!
We make these reports public so that you can share and learn from our success and failures. Please feel free to comment or provide us advice in the comments section at the end of the post.
Traffic
The following link is a reminder of the sites that we manage as part of the Objitec company.
I’m changing the way we show traffic going forward. I have decided to use the graphs displayed within Google analytics and to show the last 6 months compared to the 6 months prior.
CloudApp
We only have a couple of customers using CloudApp at the moment so the traffic remains relatively constant at around the 80 per month region, with an expected holiday period decline in December.
Objitec.com
This is the traffic for this site and it’s not great. Monthly traffic varies from a low of around 10 per month to a high of approximately 50.
Online-Booking-System.Net
This is the traffic for our one pager marketing site. As you can see, it’s only been used properly for the last 6 months and it’s showing a slow but steady increase in traffic.
PlanIt-Admin
We’ve only been monitoring traffic on the admin system for PlanItBookIt over the last 6 months. And traffic tends to remain in the 200-300 per month region.
PlanIt-BookIt.Com
Our main marketing site for PlanIt-BookIt has had a small increase in traffic over the last 6 months. Peaking at around 600 per month in November. Still more work is required!
PlanIt-BookIt
Our core booking system product PlanIt-BookIt has had a healthy increase of traffic over the last 6 months with traffic now peaking at close to the 4000 users per month mark.
Sign-Up
Traffic to our sign up page is still way too low, peaking at around 10 per month and providing us with next to no conversions at the moment.

Computer Problems!
December started with a bang, almost literally. My computers hard drive died on me. Nothing was lost as we remote desktop to secure servers to do all of our important development work.
I purchased a new solid state drive to put in my works laptop. It was a relatively simple install process. Bit timely restoring apps back on to my laptop though.
EV Survey
Spent a lot of December working on a project for a potential new customer. The project is an Electrical Vehicle pre-charge point fitting survey. Which sounds a mouthful but it is simply an app that asks questions prior to an electrical engineer going to fit an electrical vehicle charging point.
It asks questions to determine if the person requiring the fitting is eligible for various grants and it also helps to determine how difficult the installation will be by asking for the location of the fuse box and other pertinent information.
New Business
We had no requests for new work in December. We continued to create working prototypes for our electrical vehicle charge point installation company and for our executive vehicle hire company.
