Market Profitability Analysis
Profitability analysis is a component of enterprise resource planning (ERP) that
allows administrators to forecast the profitability of a proposal or optimize the
profitability of an existing product. Profitability analysis can anticipate sales and
profit potential specific to aspects of the market such as customer age groups,
geographic regions, or product types.
We will illustrate the marketing profitability analysis of our product with a table-
July-2016
Description Taka
Sales
Cost of goods sold
Gross Margin
Expenses:
Salaries 10000/=
Rent 5000/=
Supplies 5000/=
Others 5000/=
Total Expenses=
Net Profit (Total)
90000/=
40000/=
50000/=
25000/=
25000/=
We have found that we earned revenue in 28% from sales in July-2016. We have
said that the sale is not so high from the expense of cost of goods sold. If we want
to increase our company’s sales, we have to understand these-
(1) Cost of goods sold must try to decrease as much as possible.
(2) Should increase sales distribution network.
(3) Must try to decrease other expenses.
(4) Promote product price strategy.
(5) Should expose good product view in the market area.

Product Distribution
Distribution is critical for every startup. It’s all too common for a startup with a
great product to fail due to lack of distribution. So we have to develop our
distribution channel very well. Our “Fashionable life” can be delivered through
multiple channel types. Betting on one type of channel is extremely risky. Even if
we land a partner, we may not be able to control our performance. Think about all
of the options. There are some examples: Retailers, Wholesaler/distributor, VAR
(value-added reseller), Consultant, Sales agent, through Internet, catalog, and
specialized internal sales team.
