@mattepstein same thing here - notice it stopped at the exact same time.
nothing spending, and we haven't touched a single thing nor launched an ad in days.

@jrichlive Need to be careful with introducing your own bias.
Some people are better at selling themselves, or have a better appearance...there are subtle ways that you get influenced here.
And you can end up making the wrong hire.
The goals you choose will never be perfect.
It will be a constant process of refining.
What I have just shown you is a simple, startup version of an operational framework called "OKRs", which stands for "Objectives and Key Results".

A few weeks before the quarter ends, you will already know whether the top 3 goals you chose were effective.
Will the results be achieved?
Did they create the intended behavior from the team?
This is where you will review and adjust.
