ever run a race and immediately sense that you got off to an exceptionally fast start? it’s a good feeling, but if your goal is to beat out the competition there’s really only one way to know for sure how you’re doing. and that’s by marking your progress toward the finish line relative to the other racers.

the same can be said of efforts to grow your firm. to gauge your progress you have to get outside your own four walls and see how you measure up to the competition.
