- Uncontrolled growth: Expansion requires major changes in org structure, buss practices such as inventory & financial procedures, personnel assignments. As buss increase in size & complexity, problems increase & has to deal with it.
- Poor location: Often business location selected with proper investigation.
- Improper inventory control: insufficient inventory level result in shortages & stock outs – causing customer leave
- Incorrect pricing. Establishing prices that will generate the necessary profits means that business owner must understand how much it costs to make, market and deliver their products and services.
