Hey everybody, Sarah Waple, your President at Growth Dynamics, and I am here with another Fast Tip Friday.
I am bringing you this at the end of January—can you believe we're here already? One month down. One month down into our first quarter. And how are things going?
I don't like to focus on the small, itty-bitty pieces, because sometimes that makes us forget the big picture. But if you are not knowing your numbers, keeping track of where you are, knowing what's working and what's not working already this year for you. It could put you behind the eight ball later in the year.
If those numbers are not climbing in the direction that you need to be, if new customers are not signed up in the way that they need to be, don’t let yourself be surprised when I'm coming to you mid-year and you're saying, How did we get here?
It's very easy for the time to kind of tick by slowly but quickly at the same time. And for me, I know the end of January being here already feels like one of those times where I have to say, How did we get here? But here we are.
So the next option is: figure out what's working, what's not working, and make a plan to stay on track for your goals for the rest of Q1 and keep you on track for the entire year.
Now go out there and make this year the best one yet.
