Cut Costs Not Corners

Executives and managers at every level in every company have to manage budgets and make tough decisions about where to spend and where to cut. Cut Costs Not Corners by Colin Barrow provides a coherent and structured approach to cost cutting, treating it as a permanent, everyday activity rather than one born out of crisis. Barrow discusses strategic and tactical cost-cutting options such as buying technology for less, selling off redundant assets, reducing credit risk, getting paid faster, and minimizing finance and tax costs. The book will help managers gain an under-standing of how costs are incurred, which costs are acceptable, and which should be discouraged or eliminated.
