What are some typical Company Goals?

Revenue and how to increase it 2x – 4x! One hundred percent of companies have a revenue goal. Most have a net income goal that is usually only known to upper management. But what other company activities should be company goals? How about the following:

• Customer Retention

• Specific Area Expense Containment Or Reduction

• Production Volume (Must have a quality goal too)

• Quality

• Timely Delivery

• Growth

• Account Receivable Collection Time

• Employee turnover

• New Product Development

• Customer Satisfaction

These are examples of what COULD be company goals.

EXAMPLE: Setting Goals and Meeting Them!

Thirty-Year Pump Distributor

A CEO inherited this business from his Dad who had run it for 20 years. The son had run it for 10 years and was working 8-14 hours a day, six days a week to make ends meet. He had not taken a vacation in ten years. He had four kids and hardly ever saw them. He never knew where the next dollar was going to come from.

His accounts receivables (A/R) were at 89 days. He was a good guy and paid his payables in 30 days. At $3.6 Million in revenue per year, how much money was tied up in A/R? ($300,000 per month times three (3) = $900,000). Dale based the proprietary simple, but effective A/R collection methods were used to transform the A/R from 89 days to 23 – 25 days. This supplied $600,000 of cash over a few months.

Half of their inventory did not turn in a year. He could call the manufacturer and get the pump he needed in five days. A “special sale” notice was sent to the customers and within a couple of months, $200,000 of dead inventory was sold and brought in extra cash.

Then a local bank was contacted and a line of credit of $200,000 was established. In six months almost a $1,000,000 of cash was generated to ease the cash burden. He was encouraged to take his wife and family on a cruise and re-establish quality time and communications. It worked.

It worked.
