Business Growth
Not how long it takes to send a full quotation. How long before the person hears anything at all from a human being.
Business Growth
Owners talk about this like a distant dream. It is worth being specific, because the vague version never gets built and the specific one sometimes does.
Data & Reporting
Most owners judge their team on impression: who looks busy, who answers quickly, who was there late. None of those are performance.
