We don't always look at ways to better exploit what we already have. Instead of hiring new people, we need to improve the performance of our current employees. Instead of cutting costs, we need better invest the money we do spend. Instead of raising prices we need to identify our ideal customers and sell to them. This book will discuss strategies on how to do all of these things and more. It will give you 25 ways to accelerate revenue growth and increase profitability immediately, without making any new financial investments. That is the Unified Theory of Profitability. It means you look at your organization and find ways to better leverage what you already have. It means focusing on those strategies that can provide the best results. It means becoming an expert on executing on those strategies. You can do this. You just need to find the ideas that work for you and commit to implementing them. 001379148 588__ $$aTitle from PDF title page (viewed on August 29, 2016). 001379148 650_0 $$aIndustrial management. 001379148 650_0 $$aSuccess in business. 001379148 650_0 $$aCorporate profits. 001379148 653__ $$aaccelerating growth 001379148 653__ $$aaccelerating revenue growth 001379148 653__ $$aboost performance 001379148 653__ $$aexcellence 001379148 653__ $$amaximizing profitability 001379148 653__ $$aoperational elegance 001379148 653__ $$aoperational excellence 001379148 653__ $$aoperations excellence 001379148 653__ $$aperformance 001379148 653__ $$aprofit margins 001379148 653__ $$aprofitability 001379148 653__ $$arevenue growth 001379148 653__ $$atop line growth 001379148 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001379148 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781631574351 001379148 830_0 $$aSupply and operations management collection.$$x2156-8200 001379148 852__ $$bebk 001379148 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4643532$$zOnline Access 001379148 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1379148$$pGLOBAL_SET 001379148 980__ $$aBIB 001379148 980__ $$aEBOOK 001379148 982__ $$aEbook 001379148 983__ $$aOnline
