Why this goal

One place every enquiry lands, and one person who owns it that day

Deepak wrote this. Everything below is what Corto can show about where it came from and whether it holds up — including what it cannot stand behind.

Where it came from

A goal Corto proposed has a reason it exists. This is that reason, with the record behind it.

The finding

Inbound arrives and nobody counts it

What was seen
No enquiry register exists anywhere in the company and no CRM is connected, so the number of enquiries received and the share that became orders cannot be computed. One enquiry sent through the company's own contact form on 21 August, with permission, was still unanswered four days later. The founder's stated view is that inbound is not worth chasing; the company's last new customer came from that channel.
What it means
The one channel that has produced a new customer is the channel nobody measures and nobody is accountable for answering. The view of it has never had to survive a count, because no count exists.
What to do
Register every enquiry where it lands — the form, the phone and the shared sales mailbox — so next quarter has a count to argue with.

It serves Less of the company depends on any one customer's decision., a company goal.

Why these key results are enough

If every one of them lands, is the goal true? If the answer is no, the goal is measuring the wrong things.

The register exists, every enquiry Corto can see lands in it, and each gets a reply inside a day — together that is the whole of 'the channel is owned'. Counting without answering would not be.

Is it a good goal

5 of 5

SMART, checked against the goal itself. Where Corto asks more than SMART does, it says so — it is not a badge, it is what was actually tested.

  • S

    Specific

    holds

    The goal names a change, and leaves every number to its key results.

    SMART asks a goal to be specific. Corto asks it to be specific WITHOUT a number in it, so the target can move without rewriting what the company is trying to do.

  • M

    Measurable

    holds

    All 3 key results carry a start value, a target, a unit and the record they are read from.

    SMART asks for a number. Corto asks WHERE THE NUMBER COMES FROM — the actual record — because a target nobody can read is not measurable, it is only numeric.

  • A

    Achievable

    holds

    3 initiatives are under it, and every key result reads from a record that exists.

    Corto does not judge whether an ambition is realistic — that is the founder's to set. It checks the two things it can see: that somebody is working on it, and that the number can actually be read.

  • R

    Relevant

    holds

    It serves “Less of the company depends on any one customer's decision.”, which is a company goal.

    SMART asks whether a goal matters. Corto asks WHAT IT SERVES, by name, all the way up to one of the three destinations — so relevance is a chain you can follow rather than an opinion.

  • T

    Time-bound

    holds

    It runs to Oct – Dec 2026, and nothing is scored before that period begins.
