The Metric Trap: Why You’re Tracking the Wrong Numbers

“If your goal is likes… you’ll get likes. But you won’t get paid. That’s Goodhart’s Law.” Goodhart’s Law is simple: When a metric becomes the goal, it stops being useful. In business and content, this happens all the time. You start chasing: views instead of leads followers instead of customers engagement instead of actual conversations And before long, you’re getting dopamine… not revenue. In this video, I break down: ✅ What Goodhart’s Law means (in plain English) ✅ Why creators and business builders fall into this trap ✅ What happens when vanity metrics become the goal ✅ How to measure the right numbers for your stage Common traps: Views leads Followers customers “Engagement” sales conversations What it causes: You make content for strangers, not buyers Your content gets attention but not action You feel “busy” but your business doesn’t grow Better beginner metrics (track these weekly): of sales conversations of offers made of follow-ups of leads captured Simple rule: If it doesn’t lead to a conversation or checkout, it’s entertainment. Quick example pivot: Instead of: “Follow for more” Try: “DM me ‘PLAN’ and I’ll send the template.” That one shift moves your content from vanity to pipeline. 👇 Comment “METRIC” and I’ll send you my Starter Scoreboard — the 3 numbers that actually predict sales. — If you want help building a business around customer-creating actions (not vanity metrics), check out Built by the Foot.
