Lesson #2: Business Is Not All About The Profits
“Business is not longer a matter of profits alone,” Penney said. “Profits must come through public confidence, and public confidence is given to any merchant in proportion to the service which he gives to the public.” As much as he focused on providing superior customer service in all of his stores, Penney also understood that service meant more than in-store courtesy. He believed that organizations such as his should be used for the betterment of society, not only because it could but because it made sense from a business point of view as well.

Environmental Awareness
Last year I researched a number of organizations that had an exceptional business. Among the many things that I learned was that each one is focused on environmental issues.

Lesson #4: A Great Businessman is Only as Great as His Vision
What is the difference between an average point guard and a great point guard? According to Johnson, it all lies in the vision. Great point guards see the court differently than everyone else. They envision where they need to go and how they are going to get there before they even touch the ball. Johnson, unarguably one of basketball’s greatest point guards ever, used that very same vision in crossing over to the business world.

There are many people who launch their eBook business by selling a number of unrelated products. This is a funnel not a public library! You need to have focus in your marketing.

Defending Profit Margins
Each percentage point of gross profit margin you lose requires a 4% volume growth just to keep profit steady. A five point increase in your profit margin is the equivilent to a 20% increase in sales.

Do You Know Your Breakeven Point?
An episode of the popular ABC TV show “SharkTank” presented the opportunity to focus on a critical area of a business – its breakeven point. Business owners seeking venture capital on the Shark Tank program could not effectively present their breakeven point. This is all too often the case for business owners.
