Keeping Your Eyes On The Ball!



It’s not easy to own your own business! You have to constantly focus on the right things or you could lose whatever you have worked for all these years. One of the things that you need to be focused on is your Numbers. At any given time, you must be able to measure your numbers!

Some of these numbers are dollars and some are simply numbers. You have to watch them to see if they are decreasing or increasing in order to compete in this economy. A business that does not grow in their numbers is a business that will go bankrupt eventually. Some of the numbers that you will need to watch are as follows:


Number of Leads you are generating vs. last month.

Number of sales you have done vs. last month

Number of your expenses vs. last month

Number of lost business vs. last month

Watching your numbers helps you to set new goals and not lose the sight of what is important. Focus on your numbers at least once a week! Whether you’re an employee working for a company or if you own your own business, you have a job to do every day, and part of that responsibility is keeping your eyes on the ball at all times.
