The description of the problem is deficient.
"...65% increase ..."
Increase over what?
If it means the sales in the last 4 months were 65% more than the sales in the first 8 months, then the rate of sales DECREASED in the last 4 months.
I doubt that is what the problem means....
It makes no sense for us to try to help you by guessing what the problem means.  It is your responsibility to make your post so that it is clear what it means.
