The templates
Six working files behind CONTROL. Each one belongs to a chapter, and the key printed in the book opens all of them. Scan the QR code in a chapter and it opens with nothing to type.
No key yet? Get CONTROL on Amazon. It's printed inside, under the QR code.
What each one does
Chapters 5 and 8 have no template
Chapter 5, software and bookkeeping alignment, and Chapter 8, standards and accountability, describe rhythms and standards. Giving you a spreadsheet for either one would suggest the work is filling it in, and it isn't. Those two chapters have no QR code, and that's deliberate.
The chapters behind them
What readers ask
How many templates are there?
Six. They cover chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 of CONTROL. Chapters 5 and 8 have no template, because software and bookkeeping alignment and standards and accountability describe a cadence and a set of standards rather than a file you fill in.
I scanned the QR code in the book. What now?
The code holds the access key, so scanning it opens the template directly with nothing to type. If you type the address yourself instead, the page will ask for the key printed alongside the code.
Do I need the book to use them?
Yes, to open them. The key that unlocks every template is printed in the book, under the QR code in the chapters that have one. The templates also assume the chapter that explains them, so you'll get more out of them with it.
What format are they in?
Working spreadsheets and documents you can edit. Give an email address and you get both a download and a copy sent to you, so the file is somewhere you can find it later.
Do the templates change?
Yes, they get corrected and improved. That's the reason for capturing an email: so you hear when the copy you downloaded is no longer the current one.
