some portion of the profit should be shared with the employees. Surveys world-wide regarding successful companies show that successful companies are those that shares its profit with the employees, I would even add, that shares its profit, in one way or another, with their customers, and those that could give input for the growth of the company.

somehow, somewhere, the chart should show an allocation for investment to obtain business growth. History teaches us that companies which do not “care” for business growth will ultimately break down i.e at the time the blockbuster product reaches natural decline, without any replacement product of the same trend the business will altogether decline.

After the cutting is done there is no choice but to sell your way to profitability and growth.

While a company has more control over the right side of the profit tree there is a real limit to the ability to reduce costs of all types. Price may be set in the abstract by the company but price times volume is set by the market of customers.

When the financial analysis is over, it becomes apparent that the true profit leverage comes from satisfying customer’s and their needs and giving them a reason to want to do business with you. The culture of the organization is the main deteriment in how a company treats its customer and responds to their needs.
