Know your Numbers: What Key Metrics Tell You About Business Growth Strategy

As you implement your business growth strategy, it’s important to look at certain key metrics in order to gauge how well you’re doing and what you may need to do differently to improve your performance. If you can stay on top of these indicators, then you’ll be able to remain in control and guide your business to success.

A useful analogy for this is the windsock. The windsock tells pilots the direction that the wind is blowing and the speed at which it’s moving. This is important for landing because the pilots need to be able to make corrections based on how the wind is blowing against the plane.

In business, there are certain key metrics that act as a windsock. These key performance indicators will tell you how successful you are in certain aspects of your business so that you can take that information and make changes that will lead to a better business growth strategy.

For example, cash flow is one metric that could tell you a lot about your business. Is your cash flow increasing? Is it declining? Either way, you need to know which way it’s going so that you can make decisions accordingly.

Lead flow is another example of a key indicator in your business. Are you increasing your leads? Are you converting more of your leads? Less of your leads? Knowing how many leads you’re getting and what the conversion rate is will tell you where you need to focus your attention.

By looking at certain key metrics in your business, you can gain an awareness of what needs to be improved or changed and what is working. These metrics are an important part of any business growth strategy because they help you decide where to go next.
