“Real benefits come when managers begin to understand the profound difference between ‘cost cutting’ and ‘eliminating the causes of costs” — Brian L. Joiner
While businesses fixate on crafting new offerings for new markets or generating sales, they tend to overlook the fact that while bringing in more revenue for the company is crucial to generating profit, cutting costs can be just as important.
By cutting redundant costs by just a small amount, a business could double its profits without needing a single new customer and without making a single extra product. It won’t need to hire more people, enter new markets, or get a new premise — just by focusing on being more effective with what it already has.
