# The weekly review for founders

URL: https://gocutline.com/playbooks/weekly-review-for-founders/

The weekly review for founders: Thirty minutes on Sunday that decide the week. 1) What shipped? Look at the ticked blocks, not at what you remember. 2) What slipped, and why? Too big, too late in the day, or not planned at all. 3) The numbers: revenue, leads, users, hours finished. Same numbers every week.

## The steps
1. What shipped? Look at the ticked blocks, not at what you remember.
2. What slipped, and why? Too big, too late in the day, or not planned at all.
3. The numbers: revenue, leads, users, hours finished. Same numbers every week.
4. Pick three things that would make next week a win.
5. Put those three in the Grid first, in your best hours. Then everything else.

## Your first move in Cutline
