Today I want to talk about stats and measuring your activity because I know it’s something that a lot of people worry about (i.e., they worry they’re not tracking the right things) and because, and I’m going to drop a bomb here, I basically don’t track any stats in my business. So in this episode, I want to get into what the point of tracking stats in your business is, defining what’s important to track and what isn’t, and also write you a big permission slip to stop worrying.

Here's what we talk about in this episode:

  • Kaytes background into data;
  • Tracking data is a waste of time;
  • So many measures are out of your control such as Instagram followers;
  • Most things you can measure don't make a real difference in your business;
  • Encourages reactive behaviour;
  • Checking data can be soul destroying;
  • Find the few things that do affect your business and focus on that;
  • Look at what you will do with the information that you are tracking;
  • Use data as a tool for problem-solving;
  • Track what feels good to track;
  • Track your progress on goals;
  • There is only one stat that matters, that is the money coming in;
  • The stats that Kayte tracks
