3 Ways Your Business Leaves Money on the Table
For a business owner, leaving money on the table is the worst feeling because it means passing up on easy money. From forgetting to upsell to a customer to having a delivery route be longer than it needs to be, there are many ways that businesses leave money on the table. Take a look at your company's technology; you may be leaving money on the table by using inefficient technology that's literally sitting on your table.
Being Overcharged for IT Repairs
If you're being overcharged for IT repairs, then you're basically leaving money on the table. With Directive's managed IT services, we're able to offer your business remote IT support, which minimizes the need to send technicians over to your office. The savings from travel costs alone add up to a big pile of money. Directive will take this pile of money and then leave it on the table for you.
Using Outdated Technology
The newest versions of technology are designed to be more efficient than their previous versions. If you're running an older piece of equipment like an inefficient printer, then you're basically leaving money on the table that's being loaded into the printer tray. The old printer will then use your money to print TPS reports on, rendering your currency worthless. Directive can help equip your business with the latest technology, and compared to the savings you will see from using the older version, an updated piece of equipment may even pay for itself!
Not Using the Best Solution
You can also leave money on the table by your inaction. It's like there's a table full of money in the next room that you can take, and you're not even aware that the room, the table, or the money exists!
