What's up, everybody, and welcome back to LevelUp podcast. I'm Paul Alex, and today we're going to be talking about a major mistake that kill its businesses, focusing on the wrong metrics. Look, too many entrepreneurs obsess over vanity numbers. I'm talking about likes, followers, website traffic, but none of that pays the bills. You want real growth. You want to track the right numbers. Let's break it down. First, chase revenue, cash flow, not hype. I see people bragging all the time about thousands of views on social media, but their bank account says otherwise. You got to focus on what drives sales. Track leads, conversion rates, and customer retention. Attention is nice, but cash flow keeps you in the game. Second, track customer lifetime value, guys. A sale isn't just a one-time transaction. It's a relationship.

How much does that average customer spend with you over time? If you don't know, you're leaving money on the table. Lastly, efficiency beats effort. Are you spending time on things that actually grow your business? Measure productivity, not just the hours worked. Activity doesn't equal progression. Results do. So what's the bottom line, guys? Stop tracking what looks good and start tracking what actually grows your business. The right numbers don't just tell a story. They actually show you the path to scale.
