    The six numbers that tell you if this week worked.

    Pick your kind of business. We load the numbers that matter, a target for each, and who should own it. Type this week, and the one number to fix first lights up.

    Sample week filled in.

    1 of 6 on target. 3 numbers are off.

    Fix this one first: Money owed to you, over 30 days. Call the three oldest invoices this week. Ask for a date, then write it down. Owner: Bookkeeper.

    1. 0:00–2:00 Good news. One win each, fast.
    2. 2:00–8:00 Scoreboard. Each owner reads their number: on target or off. No stories yet.
    3. 8:00–13:00 The one red number: Money owed to you, over 30 days. What's causing it, what we'll do, who, by when.
    4. 13:00–15:00 Recap who owns what by Friday. Done.

    See the rest

    The questions to ask each owner, and the 15-minute agenda, are the rest.

    The number is the start. The seat is the work.

    Joey Zoccali works with owners who are still the bottleneck. Thirty minutes. Bring this result.
