A SMART goal is one that is Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. Out of the given options, the goal to 'Increase revenue by ten percent by January 15' is the only one that clearly meets all these criteria. It is specific (increase revenue), measurable (by ten percent), achievable (though this depends on the company's capabilities), relevant (related to business growth), and time-bound (by January 15). Other options lack either specificity, measurability, or a clear timeline.
Increase revenue by ten percent by January 15.
