💡 Tip — Day 168

New role mistake: trying to look competent before you understand what “good” looks like. The fastest rampers don’t wing it—they build a feedback loop. Use the Ramp Loop: 1. Scoreboard: “What numbers matter most in my first 30/60/90 days?” 2. Model: “Who is already doing this well, and can I study their calls/emails?” 3. Pattern: “What are the top 3 reasons deals or meetings are won here?” 4. Feedback: “Can you review one real example of my work each week?” This is straight out of High Output Management: output improves when feedback cycles get tighter. 🎯 Try this today: Ask your manager or a top rep one question: “What does great look like here in the first 30 days?”
