To close a deal quickly, sales teams love to offer a quick 10% discount. It feels small and harmless—until you look at the underlying math on your net margin.
Consider the reality of discounting:
The Math: If your business operates on a 20% net margin, giving a client a 10% discount cuts your actual profit margin in half. You now have to sell twice as much volume just to make the exact same dollar amount of net income!
The Impact: You increase operational stress, team workload, and delivery costs—all for zero additional reward.
The Fix: A Virtual CFO establishes hard pricing boundaries and commission structures that protect your bottom-line margin above all else.
Stop giving away half your profits to close lazy deals.
