Cost Reduction: Improve Your Department’s Bottom Line
Cost Reduction – identify costs in your business that can be cut without negatively affecting your quality or customers. Maximise profits and motivate your workforce.
Cutting costs in your organisation can make a huge difference to the profit margins? Imagine if you wanted to double your profit… To do that could you sell twice as much, or manufacture twice as much? Could your company grow to twice the size it is now within the same market? Well guess what – you don’t need to! By cutting your costs by just a small amount you could potentially double your profits without needing a single new customer and without making a single extra product. You won’t need to hire more people, enter new markets, or get a new premises – just focus on being more effective with what you already have. Cost Reduction training can make all of these business goals come true.
In this course you’ll learn practical techniques to identify wasted budget in your company, detailed tips for analysing the effectiveness of your biggest costs, understand why you should increase your prices or reduce your quality, learn which of your customers are actually loss-making, and dealing with common problems of management and motivation.
After this course your company will be lean, have highly profitable customers, and every part of the supply chain will contribute more effectively. We look at lots of real-life cost reduction examples (some of which will definitely get you laughing) and give you practical tools you can use right away to get better results in your organisation. Whether you’re a small family business or a huge multinational this course will build essential skills for your long term growth and short term effectiveness.
In my opinion Cost Reduction is one of the most powerful and underestimated leadership and project management areas. Most companies focus entirely on selling and forget that there are millions of dollars left on the factors floor through inefficiencies and misunderstandings. So, I have created a step by step course you can use to analyse your business and cut out all the waste. Rest assured – you need not make your employees or customers unhappy using these techniques… in fact most likely both will end up better off. Imagine if you only needed to work with your favourite customers, all your employees were highly motivated, and you could produce twice as much product at the same quality level? This course achieves that with simple, tried and tested ideas that have been working for decades.
