Attention e-commerce business owners! Profit management is key to the success of your business, but you can’t manage profit – it is simply an end result.  While you can’t manage profit, you can manage its drivers. There are nine crucial profit drivers that impact your business, and understanding how they work together allows you to strategically enhance their performance.

While you can't directly manage profit, you have the power to manage the drivers of profit. These nine drivers work in harmony to propel your business forward.

Among these drivers, four are closely related to marketing. It is vital for your e-commerce business to establish a strong brand and messaging that can attract leads and foster customer loyalty once they are converted.

Pricing is often overlooked as an aspect of marketing. For instance, an ad pitching a product priced at $499 will generate more sales than the same product priced at $500, because our minds automatically think we get a better value.

Get your pricing right and you’ll see profit rise but getting it wrong can literally drive you out of business. To get pricing right, you must understand the numbers.

However, understanding what the numbers tell us about our business isn't something we were typically taught in school, and let's face it, math wasn't everyone's favorite subject!

Remember, cash flow is the lifeblood of any business. Common issues arise when the timing of expenses and revenue doesn't align. This is where a proactive bookkeeper can help you anticipate and navigate these challenges, ensuring your cash flow remains healthy.
