Are You Working Blind?

A real concern we often see is how many small business owners simply don’t know how their business is performing. They’re putting in massive effort, but can’t answer key questions like:

• Are we making money?
  
  
• Who are our most profitable customers?
  
  
• What should we focus on next?
  
  

When you’re working blind, you’re flying without instruments – and it’s hard to steer in the right direction.

A Quick Self-Check

If you answer “I don’t know” to more than one of these questions, it’s time to pause and get clarity:

• Who are your most profitable customers?
  
  
• Which products or services make you the most margin?
  
  
• How many sales do you need per day/week/month to cover your costs?
  
  
• What was your profit last month?
  
  
• What are you planning to make next month?
  
  
• How much do you need to set aside for tax?
  
  
• How much money will be in the bank in three months?
  
  

Having the answers to these questions puts you back in control – and helps you lead, not just react.

A Real-World Example: CDM Limited

Before working with Oxygen8, Hayden from CDM Limited was running a construction company without clear visibility into financials, workflow, or team performance. He had a great business – but no system for tracking what was working or what wasn’t.
With help from Oxygen8, he clarified his team roles, implemented internal systems, and began making decisions with confidence.

“Oxygen8 helped us define our values, build our team, and align business goals with life goals. I wouldn’t be without it.”
