Yesterday's Leads Group II meeting included a great 'fine-tuning' activity. The group split into two segments, and each group discussed their invidivual opinions and experiences with their competition. Specifically, we opened up to each other with information about our biggest competitors and what they can do that we can't. It's an eye-opener and a great time to sit down away from your busy day to look more closely at your own business.
