Hi Donna, you’re absolutely right!

One of the major problems is that people don’t measure enough when it comes to their business processes. It’s important that you’re tracking both your input, as well as the output that it’s generating.

When it comes to things like ads or other paid marketing channels, most people are really good at this. When it comes to measuring time, and affixing a value to it – not so much.

Of course, not everything we do will have a clear and measurable outcome, but we should still try to track it as much as we can. You make some great points and I appreciate you sharing them here!

What a fabulous post James,
I read a lot of blog posts and I have never heard of a topic like this. I LOVE this topic you made about the bloggers using social media for the wrong reasons. Very ingenious.

Heading off to tweet this post.

Hi James,

It sounds simple to “simplify” your business.
But it often means you need to really know how to determine the value of your time, and be able to measure the effectiveness of your efforts.
I like your Instagram example because it reminds us, as you say, that business is built on numbers.
That’s the simple truth, but if you are not taking time to analyze the numbers, you can really complicate your business to the point of making it unmanageable.
