TOOLS AND RESOURCES
Keeping a record of your key metrics is an important part of having
a healthy business. We have a selection of ready-made gauge
forms on
MyHerbalife.com, which allow you to keep track of your
business performance and cash flow on a daily basis and make
any necessary changes to achieve your monthly goals.
By tracking your business and analysing what is, or isn’t working,
you can use this information to help you progress more quickly up
the Sales & Marketing plan (see page 46 for more details ). If you
aren’t tracking your business it can be more difficult to know where
you could be making improvements.
Get your whole organisation tracking their
business, too.
Not only will it help them and their business performance, it
will give you an idea of how your downline is performing and
you can recognise their successes and make suggestions
for improvements.
