What gets measured gets done, but beware of measuring the wrong things! For example, many Web site owners obsess about the number of hits they're getting to their site, but forget about how many of those convert to clients or customers. It's so much easier to increase the latter than the former. Totally agree, Steve. What gets measured gets done, but beware of measuring the wrong things!
