He underscores the importance of measuring engagement and aligning efforts to drive revenue, dismissing vanity metrics in favor of meaningful analytics.

This conversation challenges business owners to rethink their growth strategies. Kyle’s advice: build revenue-driven systems, focus on clear ROI metrics, and cultivate a culture of transparency and problem-solving.
