301: Mastering KPIs for Strategic Decision-Making with Angie Noll

Profit by Design

Key performance indicators (KPIs) help you make strategic decisions in your business. There are many things to measure, so how do you know which KPIs make the most sense and are worth your time to track? Join Dr. Sabrina and her guest, Angie Noll, as they discuss why we need to know our KPIs, what to do with them, and how they can make it easier to run our businesses.

Angie Noll is the founder of Reconciled Solutions, which offers accounting and advisory support to businesses that provide professional services. Angie is a Profit First Professional, Fix This Next Certified Advisor, Certified Pumpkin Planner, QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor, and a keynote speaker who brings energy to the room with a relatable and friendly tone. She thrives on helping business owners focus on profit acceleration, efficiency, and sustainability.

As a wife and the mother of three teenagers, Angie is a steadfast believer in business sustainability, not only through ensuring long-term profitability but also through lifestyle sustainability. She knows how difficult the journey can be in running a profitable small business AND avoiding entrepreneurial burnout. For Angie, sustainability means managing a flourishing business in coordination with being a keeper of the calendar at home with three kids, two pets, and one sweet husband.

Profit by Design is a Tap the Potential Production.

Show Highlights:

• Big moves, lessons learned, and goals achieved by Angie within the last year to take her life back
• KPIs provide a framework to make easier—and more proactive—decisions.
• Using the Business Priority Pyramid from Fix This Next by Mike Michalowicz
• KPIs help us evaluate our effectiveness within the five criteria in the sales pyramid: sales, prospect attraction, client conversion, delivering on commitments, and collecting on our commitments
• Measuring profitability can be easily overlooked if we only focus on sales. Big mistake!
• The biggest challenges and solutions for business owners regarding profitability
• Which is the superior business strategy? Relying on the numbers/data in KPIs vs. relying on your gut
• Using the Net Promoter Score as a benchmark to strive for more (What matters most to your clients is probably very different from what you assume!)
• Angie’s advice about the most helpful KPIs to track beyond profit
• Angie’s advice to business owners who don’t currently track their KPIs: “Just get started. Ask yourself what it would look like if your business were easy to run, and how you can make it easier.”
