Optimize Your Business to new heights
Become one of the most profitable software vendors
Knowing where to focus on in order to significantly increase annual recurring revenues (ARR) and profitability, you just have to execute the right measures.
The speed of technological changes and breakthroughs nowadays are breathtaking. They even boosted in the past few years. This makes it more important to measure the right things. There are more, but these are the most important ones to start with:
- Result compared to ARR
- Activity-/administrational rate compared to net turnover
- Rule of 40: growth + EBITDA
- Sales efficiency: some part of new business compared to sales & marketing cost
- Development efficiency: some part of new business + ARR compared to development cost
- Service efficiency: service revenue compared to service cost
Important, and you guessed it: set the threshold/target values correctly, only then will you really get a fair, data-driven, emotion-free and, above all, reliable basis for decision-making very quickly.
Let us help you securing your growth and profitability: Book us as a fractional sparring partner!
