Process of Revenue Generation

‍

The process of revenue generation could be broken down as follows:

Part I – Booking Description

This particular step involves taking data from the source systems and making it a book entry. This is necessary in various businesses such as restaurants, hotels where you have to classify your clients or customers into different categories depending on their spending pattern.

Also tagging them will help keep a tally of what they’ve ordered and checked-out so that you can micro-manage the process. The entire data entry can be automated in accounting software such as QuickBooks Pro or Sage One.

Part II – Revenue

This is where you get to convert information from booking into actual revenue which will then serve towards deciding how much cash and for what purpose it should be spent on.

There are various ways of doing this, either by manually generating checkouts based on different categories that could have been tagged for each client , or by implementing a second layer of checks and balances against any possible fraud.

Part III – Cost/Pricing

This step is where you actually allocate the actual cost to various areas within your business (which comes from revenue) in order to get more profits out of it. The total loss, however, can be diffused over a longer period. Based on this process you could set pricing for each service that was performed at different time intervals such as daily, weekly, and monthly.

Part IV – Set Revenue Targets

This is the last step where you allocate the amount of revenue that your system has created for each product category or service type to decide how much profit is actually needed per month in order to hit a certain target level.

After setting this figure it can be used as a benchmark against which actual average sales could be measured at different time intervals so you know what kind of an activity should be performed to raise your revenue.

Once all the drips have been done, you will be able to see a clear picture of what exactly is working/not so well and depending on this as well as how much cash you’re spending at any given moment, then you can go ahead with certain optimizations that could increase profits.

Part V - Simplifying the process

Despite observing that this might just be a generally good approach, certain aspects could definitely make it more complex.

For instance if you are going to implement multi-level cash control in addition to all other processes mentioned above, it would result in delays during telegraphic fund transfers and increase chances for people creating fake operations or having paper trails for their disallowed transactions. That being said there are always solutions available out of box in this area as well.

Most people feel that branding has to be well planned before launching your campaign as this involves hiring out services from a graphic designer who specialises in new brand development such as identity visual impacts, colors, fonts and images which help bring out your business to the next level.

Google SEO: 

When it comes to search engine optimization, you cannot afford not giving enough time and effort into this type of attribute that can make or break your competitive edge in today's digital economy environment.

With over 70% more customers purchasing their products on a mobile device these days than they would have if they were browsing the internet offline with just using the phone or a desktop computer, search engine optimization (SEO) goes hand in hand with organic Page Ranking and when performed properly give the exact information that people are searching for.

Google Adwords: 

This is likely where you will be spending most of your marketing budget and it is here also where many small business owners take much more risk than they need to as this involves making advertisement placements on web pages which generate clicks – advertisements like banners, text ads, image and desktop video advertisements.

Paid magazine advertising: 

This is another source of income that allows you to get your ad in the local magazines like – Mississauga Life Magazine or even national publications such as MacLean's . They are also cheap if done properly because they take only a few minutes from start to finish but their success rate decreases rapidly over time which means this option probably needs repeated testing just like any other advertising outlet.

Local networking: 

Become part of the Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn pages for your neighbourhood as well as joining local Toastmasters (preferred option if you can write) to network with participants from all industries so that word gets around about what kind of expert or service provider you are in this specific industry type because it will certainly help when people have need for your services due to a personal referral by someone who knows you inside out already .
