TURN YOUR BUSINESS INTO A LAUNCHPAD FOR GROWTH 

If you want to grow, you need a launchpad. The launchpad is cash, and this extra cash comes from profits. How will you create high confidence that your business will generate the cash you need? By creating Predictable Profits & Cash Flow -- your launchpad for growth.

ANALYZING WHERE YOUR BUSINESS IS STRONG AND NOT SO STRONG

To create Predictable Profits & Cash Flow, you need to understand your business engine:

• The gears inside the engine drive growth - you should be able to list the gears, and measure how strong they are. This is the same as calculating a confidence score for predictably generating revenue and profit going into the future. The average confidence score from analyzing 25,000 companies is only 57% - and only 11.2% score 80% or more.
• Weak gears (growth drivers) are bottlenecks to growth.
• The Owner’s Ally Core Value methodology, born at MIT, used to analyze your growth drivers.

Consider this: odds are almost 89% that there are easily identifiable bottlenecks to growing your business. What would you do with this information? Would it help you to unlock growth?

Let’s focus on the critical drivers for creating Predictable Profits and Cash Flow. As you read each one, ask yourself: “Can I prove to an impartial outsider that I am doing better than my competition?” The “impartial outsider” is the market, and the market only rewards top performers.
