What's the goal of focusing on the right things in your coworking business in 2020?

1. Get more members
2. Keep more members
3. Make a bigger impact and meet your financial goals

In this episode, Jamie Russo provides a detailed walkthrough of the five things you can focus on in your business this year to get results.

1. Creating systems in your business that help you to consistently hit the fundamentals that drive your business forward

2. Training and developing your team so that you can work "on" the business while they work "in the business," and so that you can support their professional development and retain your strong team, longer.

3. Getting found first! Consistently focusing on local search will help you get found first so that you can get potential members through your door and wow them with your tour.
