Calculate your profit
Understanding the variables that affect your Turnover and Profit may be the most important aspect of your business.
The simple equation below charts the Customers/Turnover and Profit for your business.
Leads x Conversion Rate (%) = Customers
Customers x Average Sale x Number of Sales = Turnover
Turnover x Margin = Profit

Converting Leads
Nurturing a warm lead is a more cost-effective prospect than sourcing a new lead.
Take a moment to examine your costs of gaining a client. Costs include:
- Advertising
- Stationery/Postage
- Utilities/Office Costs
- Commissions/Staffing
Focussing on nurturing warm leads and existing clients improves repeat business (increasing number of sales per client), directly affecting your profit.
Try tweaking the number of sales per client in the Turnover box and see how this changes your turnover and margin figures.
Increasing Transaction Value
Higher Transaction Values (per average sale) can be achieved in various ways, from offering samples of complementary products with initial orders, to providing outrageously good customer service.
Improving Margin
Margin can be improved through savvy negotiation with suppliers. As your business grows, negotiation will become easier.
