Losing 6K in 3 months

[Lukas WJ]

I have been running my own e-commerce stores for a good 1.5 years.
I have only made real sales this year. So far it is 90k. Until July I had about 8K gross "profit". (I know, for the turnover not much). The last 3 months, however, I have lost just under 6K, because I have tested a lot and unfortunately nothing has really worked.
If you include the tax I am currently a good 4K euros in the red.

Since I've been working on it really daily for over 1.5 years now and have tested a lot and still have made almost no sales at all for the last 4-5 months, I'm thinking about whether it's time for a pivot.
I would then move away from e-commerce and new areas. It should not be a "giving up", but rather a reorientation.

What are your thoughts on this?
