That is so true. In fact, Sharran thinks that building a dashboard is probably even more important than building a business. In this episode, he talks about three things you must understand about a dashboard to appreciate the importance of the reporting first approach. When you report first, you see your entire business come to life. Having a dashboard allows you to see data from across your business in a way that’s easy to grasp. When you clearly understand how your business is doing, you can gather insights to help you create action plans to propel your business performance forward. But without a dashboard, it's like walking in the dark. So remember to build your dashboard first before doing anything else. “Numbers don't lie; we just have to ask how to improve that number.”- Sharran SrivatsaaTimestamps:00:00 Introduction02:14 Three things Sharran will discuss today03:01 The inspiration behind this episode06:28 #1: Dashboard vs. Business Plan08:47 #2: The different types of dashboard15:32 #3: A dashboard is not just a reporting tool but a diagnostic tool19:01 Recap of today's episodeResources:- Hire Quality Virtual Assistants from Assistantly- Nic Korvessis at Scale Lab - The Real Brokerage- Top Agent Power Pack - ARC Multifamily Real Estate Investing- Sharran's Partnership Program - Join the 10K Wisdom Private Partner Podcast, now available to you for free- Grab Sharran’s 4-Week MBA for Free Connect with Sharran:- Facebook - Instagram - Twitter - LinkedIn- YouTube
