The Big 5 Growth Drivers

Did you know that you only have to increase five things by 15% in order to double your result. You can easily increase five simple metrics by 5-10%, and with a gentle push and some strategic thinking, an uplift of 15% is easily possible in 1,000 days.

So what are the Big Five?

Lion, Elephant, Buffalo, Rhinoceros, & Leopard?

or

Extroversion, Agreeableness, Openness, Conscientiousness, & Neuroticism?

Answer: Production, Purchasing, Premium, Profitability, & Performance.

For example: £100.00 x 15% uplift is £115.00, £115.00 x 15% uplift is £132.25, £132.25 x 15% uplift is £152.09, £152.09 x 15% uplift is £174.90, and finally £174.90 x 15% uplift is £201.14. Over double our initial figure.
