The era of automatic profits has come to a
sudden halt. The industry has moved from trying to keep up with demand
to battling sales, pricing, expense control and every other aspect of
operations. In turbulent times, financial benchmarking information is
more important than ever before. The best source of financial benchmarks
for the industry is the AVDA PROFIT Survey.
The information in this report provides answers to questions such as
“Are the most successful firms in a down market placing more emphasis on
gross margin management or expense control?” In short, this report
presents a wealth of financial and operating guidelines. In addition, it
provides direct comparisons between your firm and other participating
firms. This valuable information is, however, only available to firms
that participate in the study.
In return for your participation, you’ll receive:
-
The PROFIT Report: A financial and
operating profile of the entire industry.
-
Profit Improvement Profile: A
confidential report sent directly to you comparing your firm with
similar participating firms. Many firms take this report to the bank
to discuss loans and lines of credit.
-
Profit Toolkit Online: A Microsoft®
Excel spreadsheet to assist your financial planning. Access
instructions are included with your Profit Improvement Profile.
The detailed benchmarking information in
the PROFIT Report and in your Profit Improvement
Profile is available to you for only $850. This is a great bargain.
Profit Planning Group keeps your proprietary company data strictly
confidential. Only the necessary staff of Profit Planning Group ever
sees your data. Reports present only aggregated results. Strict masking
procedures are used so no individual firm data can be identified. All
survey forms are destroyed after processing. In over 20 years of
conducting benchmarking studies, Profit Planning Group has an
unblemished record of maintaining confidentiality.

program and its benefits to your firm.
