But just like April showers bring May flowers, consistent effort at work will bring great, beautiful payoffs later!
It’s time to spring into action in these 3 ways to help move your business into a success. Although it recently started, the second quarter will be over before you know it and that means we’re also halfway through the year!
So how can you ensure that you not only stay on track with but get ahead of your 2018 objectives?
Set & Follow Through with Goals
If you’ve been following the blog, you are no stranger to the importance of goal-setting. Being goal-oriented is a great thing. Without goals, you may be busy day in and day out, but what are you really working towards? Are you truly improving or just getting by?
So, easy first step: SET GOALS! If you are unsure how to set specific, measurable goals, we’ve got you covered here and here.
Now that you have set goals – are you truly following through with them? To follow through, you must sure you are properly communicating your goals, and checking up on progress!

Track Your Success
To accurately communicate your progress towards goals with employees, you must be tracking how well you are doing!
This is why tools like call tracking, digital attribution programs, and aggregate online review platforms are necessary for your business to really improve.
If you don’t know how you are doing, how can you improve? Thinking and knowing are two different things. You must track your goals to truly know if what you’re doing is propelling you towards your goals or if you are falling behind.
Repeat What’s Working, Work on What Isn’t
Once you are tracking your efforts and can clearly see if you are on track with, surpassing, or falling behind your goals, you can now take a step back and adjust.
Are there certain marketing pieces that are performing better than others? Re-allocate marketing dollars from under-performing ad sources that aren’t giving you great ROI to advertisements that are bringing in more leads. Don’t spend extra money – use your tracking reports to make better data-driven decisions.
Which call handlers have higher appointment conversion rates than others? See what they are doing well and use that to help train and coach call handlers that aren’t doing as well.
The point is – take a look at the data along the way to see how you’ve been progressing towards your goals, track your efforts, and do more of what’s working well. It’s really not innovative news, but sometimes we all need reminding.
