Otherwise, how can you get where you want to be if you don’t know where that is?
I usually plan my retreat in late summer – it’s late enough in the current year to have a good idea of how the year is progressing and yet still have enough time to make changes if necessary. I take a few critical tools and go somewhere alone for a few days where I can sit and reflect on my business as a business, it’s successes
When it comes to advertising and marketing your products and services, common sense dictates that the higher the response rate, the better. But just knowing that is not enough.
