Are your margins constrained by market conditions and you can't raise prices? What we
tell our clients is to add private label or other products that carry bigger margins. They
may be add-on’s to your main offerings or alternative choices to what you sell. Even if
the prices are lower with better margins, you can earn more profits.

threats and too often we are too busy to even think about them. Today we will chat about
some simple ways you can protect yourself and your business
