Ages ago a bloke called Dave used to post on here. English guy who went to live in Holland. He used to show at the bottom of his messages how many leaflets put out/number of live customers/quotes given etc...

Anyone know what became of him?

Hi Simon.

Have a look at the keeping motivated topic.

He is Pingu.

  It would be interesting to read your findings Dave!

Alot of my numbers are very much...start/finish time, total hours worked, money taken per day, week, month, 8weekly....leaflets out in area's, gains, losses, moves, suspended, one-off's, quotes successfull, unsuccesfull.

With these numbers it is possible for me to find out alot about my business and then combined with year end accounts...this I find is very intresting as I can drill the business info and work out what is god/bad for me....

I will post my water usage but all the other numbers are really only relevent to me now....

I used to post things like how many leaflets I posted and quotes achieved, won/lost etc but these have somewhat lost their meaning and most area's have been leafleted about 6 times now so the averages have very little meaning...

If I can help with anything please ask.

Cheers
Dave.

Do you have any employees Dave?

[pingu]

No sorry I do not have any employee's, I imagine that it will be some time before I go down that road...as I stand today...I enjoy being my own boss and when our business is full I will then prune it and remove the chaff and replant....hope for future years of bumper crops...

I liken my accounts as if I were a farmer....I sow and then harvest....

Cheers
Dave.
