EP 011: Tracking Your Wealth

Take a second to imagine running your business without tracking anything…

No sales numbers, no marketing numbers, no financial reports, no time sheets, no stock levels.

How would you know if you are on track or off track?
How would you know if you need more stocks or less stocks?
How would you know if your marketing is working or if you need a new strategy?

Without tracking, it’s next to impossible to make good decisions or run a business well.

I’ve met business owners who run their business on “gut feel” and 99% of the time, it leads to absolute disaster. (I’m sure you have also!)

Anyhow, I’m sure I don’t need to convince you that tracking the numbers in your business is crucial.

Which is why bringing tracking to your wealth is just as important.

So in this episode of the podcast, we go through how to track your wealth and the process we use to do so.
