Managing internal teams

It can feel like a thankless and impossible task at times..

And that is why margin quietly disappears

Not because you don't care about it..

But because it's probably not been priorised.

When you don't prioritise margin, it will always get traded away without a thought.

I've noticed that margin focused vendors do something stupidly simple:

They make margin a constraint, rather than a specific goal.

How...?

All growth must clear margin thresholds before it's signed off

Any activity must fit within pre agreed margin guardrails

Any exception must be visible/agreed and temporary...

Managing margin at sku level every day would drive you mad, so why not implement a clear set of rules to follow?
