A client once came to me frustrated about rising costs, specifically related to their company fleet.
Repairs were stable. Maintenance was normal. But somehow, fuel expenses had jumped nearly 40%.
She assumed it was just higher gas prices.
But when we compared her team’s vehicle reports, the numbers told a very different story. In fact, one number stuck out — one salesperson’s fuel bill was way higher than everyone else’s.
Same role. Same territory size. Same type of truck.
Something didn’t add up. And whenever there’s an outlier, it’s a sign to me to dig in.
This is such an important topic that I wanted to make sure to cover it on Your Numbers Are Talking.
Some of the key takeaways / things to watch for are:
1. An outlier in your numbers is always worth investigating.
2. Trust without structure is not a system.
3. Small controls create big culture shifts.
