Default Re: Why (in my opinion) everyone should learn business skills...

I can hear my former accountant scolding me for thinking that sales were the main consideration. If you don't know how much profit you're making for each sale, you could be losing money on each transaction. So, yes, it's great to drive sales forward but only if you've got a good handle on the costs.

ps if Andy ever was to read this, I'm sure he'd be impressed that I actually listened to him, LOL.
