Takeaways:

  • Not having a clear perspective of your current state in the business will deter you from planning ahead.
  • Taking inventory of all of your important things of your business — the vital signs — at least once a week will significantly help you in the long run.
  • The number of listings, current pendings, closed transactions, active listings, leads and more will give you an idea of where you stand and what you need to do to achieve your goals.

There are still 4 1/2 months left until the new year, but many don’t realize that the holidays and vacations pending in the second half of the year will take many working days off the calendar.

You might have a booming business, or you might be falling behind. Not having a clear perspective of your current state in the business will deter you from planning ahead and forming a proper goal for yourself.

You can apply this method immediately, and it will show tremendous results. People sell their inventory, but they don’t think twice to take stock of what they have sold.

Taking inventory of all of your important things of your business — the vital signs — at least once a week will significantly help you in the long run.

Don’t let the summer sun lull you into a lazy state of mind for your business. To get more details on how to keep your business on track by using the vital stats report, listen to the full podcast below:
