Helping You Prosper With What You Have!
Why Do The Most Important Things Always Seem The Hardest?
I just finished a coaching session with a client where we talked about the importance of keeping track of what is happening in their business.
We discussed figures, and she assured me she knew her profit & loss & balance sheet, but unfortunatly, she didn’t know the figures that actually dictate whether she made a profit or not.
The figures I meant were the ones she reckoned were too hard to gather, you know, how people found out about you, how many bought, what % of inquiries bought etc etc. because all of her staff and her would have to write the results down manually instead of relying on the computerised till -”oo hard and time consuming” she said!
These figures can make such a big difference on any business.
Lets look at another client I had. I asked him his conversion rate and he told me about 80%, however when we measured it, he was shocked to find it was only 37%.
Over the next 3 months we worked on improving their sale conversions and he ended up with nearly a 20% increase to 44%.
This virtually meant a 20% increase in profit without spending 1 extra single cent. It was just like turning on a money tap.
Is it time you really get to know your business.
