Revenue is not your friend

Or “sales”, if you’d like to put it that way.

Not even cashflow is your friend.

You can have millions in revenue. Millions in cashflow. And still on the verge of killing the business.

You need to focus on your profit and your margins.

And this comes from the value you help create to your customers.

Because those (profit + margins) are the ones that make your business sustainable. They are the things that fund your mission.

Because —spoiler alert— no decision is a very clear decision.
