Macomb County
It is January in Macomb County and a team member asks for their yearly review and a raise. You know they are good, but you have nothing written down from the year, so the talk turns into vague praise, a number you pick on the spot and a person who leaves feeling unseen.
With scorecards and a review rhythm in place, every role has a short list of numbers and behaviors that matter. Managers check in monthly with simple notes, and reviews happen on a set schedule with real examples and clear next steps.
Reviews become conversations people look forward to. Good people see where they stand and how to grow, problems get handled early instead of at the end of the year, and raises match the work.
Tap the ones that sound like your week.
There is one business for about every 6 residents of Macomb County. The ones that grow are the ones that hire and keep good people.

The names a customer compares you with, by Google review count.
We work with you to define what great looks like for each role.
We create scorecards, check-in guides and a one page review template.
We coach managers on running check-ins and reviews that feel fair.
We set the calendar, send reminders and review how it is working each quarter.
What we report every month: Check-ins held on schedule, Reviews completed on time, Scorecard results by role, and Turnover among strong performers.
A scorecard holds a few measures that show whether someone is doing the job well, like quality, speed, customer feedback and teamwork. Keep it to what the person can control. Too many measures and nobody remembers any of them.
The fee depends on how many roles need scorecards, how many managers need training and how much ongoing support you want. A small team with a few roles is quick. Larger teams with several departments need more scorecards and manager coaching.
A yearly review alone leaves too much time between conversations. Short monthly check-ins with a fuller review once or twice a year keep things current. When the formal review comes, there should be no surprises.
Use real examples, not adjectives. Point to the scorecard, name what went well, name what needs work and agree on one or two goals. End with what support the person will get to reach them.
Start with a clear, private conversation about the gap and what good looks like. If it does not improve, a written improvement plan with specific goals and dates gives a fair chance. Document each step, and bring in HR or an employment attorney before any termination.
No setup, but reviews feel random and good people feel ignored.
Gives you forms and reminders, but it does not decide what matters or train managers.
We build scorecards, a one page review and a check-in rhythm, and coach your managers to run them.
