Podcast Ep 68 | Profit Per X

July 26, 2021

IN THIS EPISODE:

Prof­it per X (PPX) is a con­cept from Jim Collins where com­pa­nies gain clear insight into how to most effec­tive­ly gen­er­ate sus­tained and robust cash flow and prof­itabil­i­ty. In par­tic­u­lar, they dis­cov­er the sin­gle denom­i­na­tor that has the great­est impact on their economics.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Why PPX is strate­gic and not an exe­cu­tion metric
  • What makes a good PPX
  • How to align this con­cept with your hedgehog
  • Prof­it per X examples
