We come away with a list of top reasons they call. They call for revenue, what they’re selling, (and see list for more) Sellers call office 7 times per week about 20 different things. We’re not sure which items they call about most frequently. Have staff measure the frequency of each type of call for 1 week. We come away knowing which items take up most time. They call mostly to learn revenue and get tweet links. @lissijean

The sellers will stop calling for revenue. They wanted an update more frequently than once a week. @lissijean Manually send sellers a weekly revenue email. See if they call for revenue that week.
- 56. GOAL TARGET CONDITION CURRENT CONDITION OBSTACLE STEP EXPECTED LEARNED Sellers should be able to be self sufficient. Sellers call office less than twice a week. Sellers call 5 times per week about revenue and tweet links. We need a faster way to calculate revenue. Create a spreadsheet to calculate revenue with daily sales. We can send out the revenue daily and sellers won’t call. Sellers were very happy with the report for now. Sellers call 3 times per week about tweet links.

We can send out the revenue daily and sellers won’t call. Sellers were very happy with the report for now. Sellers call 3 times per week about tweet links. Tweet links have unique codes generated on them Create a standardized share code for curators. Sellers will know their code and not ask for links. They still ask for links because forget link text. Sellers call 2 times per week about tweet links. Weird naming system doesn’t allow sellers to remember. Create a list of all the products for each seller and generate tweet links. Sellers will use this to tweet and not ask for links. They were happy with this and liked the one click. Sellers call 1 time per week about many different things. @lissijean

- 63. 1. Schedule routine checkins after every experiment to walk through the 5 questions. 2. Designate someone from outside the team as the coach. 3. Spend time establishing the target condition and the current condition. 4. Note that experiments and feedback will be longer as you build out solutions fully, but you can still use Kata to checkin and improve. 5. Adjust target conditions and challenges that you find miss the mark. Tips for Using Kata
