How a 1% Change Can Be a 10% Change

How a 1% Change Can Be a 10% Change

How can a 1% change be a 10% change?

Let's do the (simple) math...

A 1% change to a $1M business is a $10,000 change. Sounds small, right?

Now, if your profit margin is currently 10%, that's $100,000 profit on $1M revenue.

And finally, $10,000 is 10% of $100,000.

So, a 1% change to your revenue can result in a 10% increase to your profits.

Now take a moment and try 2 things:

1. Come up with a 1% change that you could make this week. Write it down. Do it.

2. Imagine what a series of 1% changes each month would do for your business over the course of a year.

Commit to the process and stay consistent to see amazing results.


Want help with making regular and consistent 1% changes (that sometimes turn into 5% or 10% changes)? Let me know.

It's the little stuff that adds up over time. Funny thing is, 1% change in your professional relationships might also net a difference of 10% or more in your results. Thanks for the reminder, Sturdy!

Love this concept from an internal personal perspective of trying to be better everyday. But also from a professional level when it comes to improving cash flow of a clinic via revenue cycle optimization and efficiency. “Be better everyday”
