With all of the data swirling around your business, it can make you feel cluttered, disorganized and pulled into a million directions. While most people dread talking about their numbers, Layne Booth says that knowing your numbers plays a key role in scaling your business. With a background in industrial engineering, Layne has experience in manufacturing, supply chain, sales and marketing. After becoming a mom, Layne used her experience to build her company, The Project Booth, where she helps business owners create a visual map that helps them make data-driven decisions to capitalize on sales and profits. 
According to Layne, CEOs of successful multi-six and seven-figure companies have three things in common. They have clarity in their systems, demand high performance and execute their visions with confidence. When putting together a plan for her clients, Layne focuses on analyzing their business’s numbers to better understand how its profits and brand reputation are doing. It is only when you have clarity in your numbers that you can truly make decisions like a CEO.
