At Advivo, we are constantly looking for new ways to take your business to the next level and we never cease to be surprised at the constant rate of change and innovation and the opportunities they present for improvement and growth.
However, we cannot ignore the most prominent metrics of profitability and there are only two ways to increase profit:
1. Increase revenue
2. Decrease costs
Over the next two months, our business improvement focus and communications will concentrate on these two strategies.
Throughout August we will focus on strategy one, increasing revenue. Trevor Holmes recently published an e-book promoting The Top 5 Tips to Accelerated Growth we will be expanding on these and other strategies to help you increase revenue throughout August and during September we will focus on ways to help you reduce costs. The beauty of cost savings is that 100% of every dollar saved goes straight to your bottom line.
More on these two strategies over the next couple of months and save the date for the evening of 21 September 2017 for our seminar on Business Improvement Strategies we will provide further practical tips and suggestions to Improve your Business and take it to the Next Level!
