OL1273 | On Demand Course | Intermediate | Self-Study
Description
This four-topic event focuses on three separate, proven tactics to increase profitability, including cost reductions, revenue enhancements, reducing investment, avoiding waste, and taking a more integrated look at avoiding risk. We also look at methods to optimize the return from the marketing function. The focus is simple - getting the most bang for the buck with proven approaches to increase profitability and to improve the organization.
Tactics to Improve Bottom Line: 1st Strategy Improve ROI
What do investors want? They actively pursue three key strategies; 1) improve profit (most over used strategy), 2) reduce investment (an under used strategy), and 3) reduce risk (a much-neglected strategy). In this the first of three sessions, see 1) above, we will explore successful strategies to improve pricing, increase volume, and reduce risk. We will discuss proven techniques to help your organization thrive.
Tactics to Reduce Investment: 2nd Strategy Improve ROI
What do investors want? They actively pursue three key strategies; 1) improve profit (most over used strategy), 2) reduce investment (an under used strategy), and 3) reduce risk (a much-neglected strategy). In this second of three sessions, see 2) above, we will explore strategies to improve asset utilization and reduce investment. We will discuss proven techniques to help your organization thrive.
Tactics to Reduce Risk: 3rd Strategy to Help ROI
What do investors want? They actively pursue three key strategies; 1) improve profit (most over used strategy), 2) reduce investment (an under used strategy), and 3) reduce risk (a much-neglected strategy). In this third of three sessions, see 3) above, we will explore strategies to reduce risk. When risks are exhibited on the income statement - it is too late. Risk is silent and insidious. We must plan, as we have seen what happens when risk becomes real and reduces net income. We will discuss proven techniques to help your organization plan for risk before the next miscalculation. Be prepared!
Bridging the Gap with Marketing Management: The Four Ps
What should we know about marketing and what are the four 'P's of marketing? Many financial leaders are not sufficiently knowledgeable about the marketing function, marketing management, and measuring marketing results. When we know more, both functions can work collaboratively to help drive a superior bottom line. We can more accurately measure success, for example, in order to approve a cost-effective strategy to maintain and grow the business organically. We will discuss proven techniques to help your organization grow and thrive. Finance and marketing can and should help each other - we will show you how.
