7 Reasons We Created Live Dashboards

Because the best reporting tool is the one everyone can actually use

I often get asked how Live Dashboards came about.

The answer is simple. I was spending way too much time trying to figure out exactly what was going on in my business and not nearly enough actually implementing my findings.

There had to be a better way, but I wasn’t finding what I needed on the market.

The solutions I came across were either too expensive or not user friendly enough for just anyone on my team to be able to log in and see exactly where the business stood.

So, I made my own.

Enter, Live Dashboards.

It’s automated, customized reporting that integrates with 100+ tools, alerts you when numbers spike or dip in real time, and can easily be shared across teams so that you have a single source of truth.

Even better, it grows with you.

While there are plenty of well-known reporting tools on the market, I wanted to create a new solution that solved for every complaint that I’ve had in the past, including not being able to easily add dashboards directly into slides.

But beyond the nice-to-haves, I sought to design a tool so easy to use that it would actually be put to use.

Here’s why that’s so important.

1. Improved Customer Insights

Live Dashboards lets you easily track metrics like customer acquisition, retention, and LTV. No more combing through reams of raw data, only to find yourself tracking down a funny-looking result hours later.

In addition to saving countless hours, having this data in one place allows you to effortlessly fine-tune marketing decisions and focus on the most valuable clients.

2. Operational Efficiency

Being able to easily monitor KPIs like sales performance, inventory levels, or employee productivity helps you to quickly spot inefficiencies and adapt your strategies to save time and resources.

3. Data-Driven Decisions

Real-time, actionable data enables smarter, more confident decisions.

I probably sound like a broken record on the topic of being a data-driven business owner. I’m aware that it’s often not that simple though.

Nearly all of my clients tell me that they’d like to make more data-driven decisions, but messy data, difficult-to-navigate reports, and limited time tend to get in the way.

A simple solution like Live Dashboards allows you to be data-driven without requiring much in the way of time or expertise.

4. Time Savings

I’ve alluded to the time saved by implementing dashboards over DIY reporting solutions in my own business, but here’s the how of it.

Live Dashboards lets you automate data collection from spreadsheets, CRMs, accounting software, and more.

This functionality means you can focus on growing your business instead of manually compiling reports.

5. Team Accountability

Live Dashboards are easy to share with your team, ensuring everyone is aligned on goals and performance standards.

Offering this degree of transparency has also done wonders to motivate my team and encourage collaboration.

6. Proactive Problem-Solving

Having all this data at your fingertips in an easy-to-understand format lets you spot early warning signs like declining customer satisfaction or missed sales targets.

It’s much easier to take corrective action as soon as you know you’ll need to.

7. Scalability for Growth

What I love most about Live Dashboards is that they evolve with your business. You can easily add metrics and integrate new systems as often as needed.

Whether you’re a small team or scaling up rapidly, your data stays organized and accessible.
