Cost Containment Strategies Your Business Must Have
Even businesses with large revenue streams can come undone when they fail to contain their costs. Knowing you have the right strategies in place to contain your costs means you can spend more time on bringing in the revenue.
Analyze your financial data
Understanding, analysing and acting on your financial data is the first critical step in containing costs. Work with your accountant to regular review your data. If you don’t understand something, ask for an explanation. Make sure you know what every cost is and why it’s a part of your business.
Make changes to improve cash flow
Don’t simply treat your bills and their payment terms as inevitable. Talk to your accountant about other options:
– early payment discounts
– purchase vs lease vs short-term hire
– debt recovery services
– reviewing suppliers & their cost options
Track expenses against jobs
Considering tracking your costs against particular jobs or projects. This lets you gain a better understanding of the fine detail of your costs and which jobs or project may have higher input costs.
