Numbers - For Executives & Serious Entrepreneurs

NUMBERS is a FREE information and contact publication for executives and serious entrepreneurs who need answers but don't have endless amounts of time to cull through thousands of search engine responses for their answers. NUMBERS is designed specifically for business people who want to increase sales, increase profits, cut taxes, cut government regulation and generally approach the 21st Century World of Business tactfully but aggressively!

If the measure of a successful enterprise is the profits which are accumulated during any given period of time then many factors must be considered by today's managers and executives.  Large businesses have the resources to employ specialists in each valid category of the management team; such as, Marketing, Financial, Accounting, Tax, Employee, Shipping, Engineering, Design, Development, Research, Production, etc. The small business doesn't have this luxury; they must make a profit utilizing only a few executives to fill all functional roles, sometimes the business is so small that the owner must fill all executive, production, design and developmental roles themselves.

Consultants are the answer and because they are generally considered expensive you must do a lot of reading and a lot of studying so you can at least become proficient in the major tasks at hand.  This is not an easy chore especially when necessary material is so wide spread and difficult to evaluate, accumulate and assimilate. 

Our mission is to deliver that material to your desktop each Monday morning so you can print and read at times appropriate to your schedule.  This approach will allow you the extra daily time to attend to those business functions which are so vital to your success rather than spending it surfing the "net"!

The two most important factors are generation of sales and containment of costs.  What most managers and executives don't realize is that the generation of sales includes such important factors as human resources, customer service, design, production and shipping along with the obvious element of product pricing, product benefit, customer accumulation and retention.  These elements are all embodied within the discipline of Marketing and for that reason we will spend a great deal of effort bringing the wisdom of many varied marketing resources to your attention over the next 52 weeks.

Cost containment is generally perceived as a function of making the parts in-house or squeezing your vendors until they scream.  This may or may not be true depending on the product or service you are selling.  But; there are elements not considered very often as cost containment items and they are Taxation and Liability.  These two items probably account for more expense to your profitable existence than all the other costs combined and yet they are generally ignored.  Most small business managers just say; "what can I do, they are a necessary evil and then they throw up their hands".

There is a lot you can do and we will bring you concise strategies to help you deal with these costs appropriately.  http://www.acquest-global.com\N_issues
