1. Focus on metrics that matter π€
However much we donβt want it to be true, the marketing team must be held accountable to revenue generated, not brand awareness.
Revenue is the ultimate lagging metric.
2. Give βleadingβ goals πΉ
Give each team member a goal that focuses on a metric they can influence. This empowers team members whilst also increasing accountability.
3. Track weekly π
Have each team member update their leading metric in a single, shared spreadsheet first thing on Monday morning with objective comments about the result.
4. Meet daily π€
Iβm not talking about a gruelling, soul-destroying sixty minute Zoom, Iβm talking about a ten minute, blocker removing stand-up.

One example of this is Document360's Knowledgebase Ninjas, a podcast solely focused on technical writers and has become the most downloaded podcast in the niche in less than a year.
Step 2: Find Strategic Guests
Be more strategic about guests:
π An ideal customer
π They run a massive blog in your niche
π They have a big audience of your ideal customers
Short term profitability comes from strategic guest relationships, not audience growth.
