In our ‘Working Better Now’ series, I had the pleasure of chatting with Stephen King, CEO of GrowthForce, about revolutionizing businesses with automation and financial intelligence.
I invite you to discover data-driven strategies for pricing and growth, which are applicable to small businesses and Fortune 1000 companies alike.
Key Takeaway:
One thing that really stuck with me is how crucial data-driven decision-making is for transforming businesses. Stephen emphasized the need for companies to focus on actionable financial intelligence, automate back-office processes, and use data to make informed choices.
We dug deep into strategies for pricing and growth that apply to businesses of any size, stressing the importance of understanding costs, setting profit goals, and aligning pricing with the unique value your business brings to the table. It was such a valuable discussion—I couldn’t wait to share it with you!
