Highlights: The importance of fighting the urge to check in on your marketing data more often than is necessary How focusing on daily or hourly performance can lead to bad marketing decisions Knowing when it's time to draw conclusions and when it's time to hold The tendency to drive for instant results and the importance of patience in marketing strategies Recognizing hyperactivity as a form of panic How to create a check-in calendar that makes sense for how your business operates Why understanding what data to review and what you're hoping to learn is so important Episode Resources Connect with Brian Jones and Patience Jones https://graphicmachine.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/graphicmachine/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-jones-graphicmachine/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/patiencejones/
