Jon Virostek Joins Austin Business Journal Leadership Trust to Discuss Five Key Business Metrics for Growth

by Austin Expert Panel

AUSTIN, TEXAS (April 20, 2020) — There are many ways to measure your business’s success and growth. There are some widely used metrics, like sales revenue, yearly growth, and profit and loss. However, experienced leaders know there are unique data points that can tell them a lot about the health of their organization.

Austin Business Journal asked five members of Austin Business Journal Leadership Trust, including Checkpoint Capital’s very own - Jon Virostek, to share an unusual but effective metric they track in their business. Here’s why they believe these five data points are so helpful.

1. Face-to-face meetings.

“I keep track of one-on-one business meetings. Social media can give a false sense of accomplishment, and I often see sales brag about followers and likes. This is all positive, but social media is just the first step. The ones who turn that into a personal connection are the ones I see succeed. Tracking your face-to-face meetings will tell you a lot about your employees, sales and margins.” – Jon Virostek, Checkpoint Capital, LLC
