In this video, I’m going to show you how to grow your startup or small business using the OKR System.

OKR (“Objectives and Key Results”) isn’t just for small businesses. Companies like Google and Intel rely on OKR to get stuff done in their company.

You’ve probably heard of the OKR from John Doerr, who has helped make the system famous. Well, this video is going to get into LOTS of detail … and show you exactly how to implement OKR in your business.

I’ll even reveal how I OKR helped grow our startup to 33 million users.

So without further ado, let’s review what you’ll learn.

Your first two steps are to identify high-level goals. Then, break those goals down into smaller chunks. Specifically: set specific outcomes that you want to achieve (goal-setting).

Next, it’s time to assemble the teams that are going to tackle these goals. This is a step that trips a lot of people up. And I’ve got some awesome pro tips in this section of the video that I had to learn the hard way.

Your 5th step is to announce the goals so everyone is on the same page.

Then, it’s time to schedule (and actually do) weekly check ins. That way, you measure the objective and key results. And make changes if needed.

Last up, it’s time to score how you did. There’s a right and WRONG way to score progress with OKR. And in the video I show you the right way.

OKRs don't require specific tools, can be run from a PowerPoint as we did or there are specific online services such as Ally or Perdoo.
