Every
Department Influences Company Profit
Does every supervisor understand that each department
makes money for the business? Have you trained your administrative
staff how to
increase the company’s bottom line? Do not
let employees to begin to view their jobs narrowly with the "it's
not my job" attitude. Remind the entire staffeveryone contributes to
the undelying economic health
of the business.
Managers and
supervisors, should create a checklist of what their department can do
to increase the company’s profits. If they are asked by the
"Boss," your employees
will come up with many suggestions.
Here are some typical profit-enhancing ideas:
< Prepare a method to estimate the turnaround time for each project
or assignment. Then, have the supervisor set reasonable deadlines.
< Credit terms should not be determined solely by
a customers’ payment history. The cash flow needs of the
company should be a major factor.
< Bill cusotmers while orders are being prepared for
shipment, not afterward. The faster you invoice the faster you get paid.
< Invoices must accurate and easy to understand. Mistakes delay
payment and give customers excuses to not pay at all.
< Measure, analyze and project the productivity
of employtees and capita equipment.
< Get jobs done for the lowest payroll cost. by assignin competent, not overqulified, employees.
< Cross-sell by making customers aware of the products and
services your company provides.
