4 Growth Levers at your service

First, determine your primary goal.

What is your plan with your GROWTH

• Seeking for equity funding? Then focus on Revenue Growth.

• Attracting interest-based funding? Then Prioritize Margin Growth.

• Propelling word of mouth? Then Concentrate on User Growth.

• Aiming to exit your business? Then target EBITDA Growth.

Now, let's explore some growth ideas, bearing in mind that working on one lever may impact others:

For Revenue Growth:

• Increase your prices by 5-10%—your customers won't likely notice.

• Acquire your competition—the easiest way to boost your topline.

• Focus on customer retention—selling more to existing clients is easier than acquiring new ones.

For Margin Growth:

• Renegotiate for a 10% cost reduction and longer payment terms with suppliers.

• Optimize your supply chain—remove, simplify, or automate processes.

• Focus on high-margin products (digital) and phase out low-performing ones.

For User Growth:

• Advertise low-cost products at the front end, leading to clear back-end upsell opportunities.

• Kick off an affiliate or referral campaign with existing customers.

• Expand and enter new markets.

Consolidate Before Firing Up Your Growth Engine

To ensure a successful turbo growth, prepare your team and systems beforehand:

• Share your growth plans and goals with your team to gain early feedback and buy-in.

• Analyze the impact on your back-office, cloud space, and processes.

• Battle-test your systems and processes to maintain a seamless customer journey.

2 Methods To Explore Geographical Expansion

Last week I spoke with Viktor Kyosev who is a true specialist when it comes to market entry in SouthEast Asia.

South East Asia offers a massive business growth opportunity for founders of all kinds, specifically in the b2b tech, and online space. But before just setting up shop in a region where you don’t have (yet) clients, teams and partnership you want to dip your toes in the entrepreneurial waters first before allocating your budgets

For those craving more than "just business growth," I have two methods to grow your business in South East Asia:

• Fly-in Fly Out: Costing $25,000 per year, this method involves trade show visits, client and partner meetings, and community connections.
  

• Hiring and Outsourcing Business Development Team: For $125,000 per year, this option will help you gain early sales traction with an outsourced sales team on the ground.

For a rewarding ROI on your Singaporean set-up, I highly recommend incorporating quickly and affordably with Osome's remarkable team. You can get your business incorporated for as low as SGD2400. Use my referral code for an additional S$150 discount on your incorporation.

That wraps up this week's newsletter.

Have a magical day! Cheers, Sven
