8. Define your ICP with teeth (what you say no to)

9. Run a quarterly business review that actually moves deals

10. Map which layer of the revenue engine is weakest

11. Separate demand generation from pipeline conversion

12. Build a retention motion that's not just renewal calls

13. Track NRR, not just new logo growth

14. Remove the distributors who won't be measured
