Episode 304: Testing Businesses: How to Figure Out if You're On the Right Track Today! (FS304)
Shownotes: http://fizzleshow.com/304
What are business experiments? How can you conduct one easily and quickly? In what ways can using tests like these help you to grow and propel your business forward?
Using tests and experiments can teach you so much about how to progress; what areas need attention; and, what is possible. There may be things that you thought were beyond you that are completely achievable!
In this episode, we talk about how to run experiments as well how to structure them to gauge success, build confidence and jump to the next level. We talk about engines of growth, goal setting, clarifying the process and how asking yourself what you want can kickstart this mode of thinking.
We also talk about five essential areas of these tests and Aiden breaks down the physiology of the test body! We talk about control, variables, structure and more. We use the example of growing your audience as the proxy to explain these parts so that you can go out and get started!
For all that and whole lot more, join us today!
