What to MeasureMANAGEMENT + MEASUREMENT + GROWTH

NectarMedia | Nectar Tasting Room | Spokane Wine Magazine | @nectarmedia | mayhem@nectarmedia.co

“It doesn’t matter how many friends, followers, or subscribers you have. Or even the number of posts, tweets, or follower to following ratio!. What matters is everything that happens after you post, tweet, blog, share, or participate. Did you grab attention? Did you deliver delight? Initiate a discussion? Cause people to take action? DID YOU PROVIDE VALUE?!
