When looking at your customer base, also do two essen- tial computer runs: (1.) customer ranking report by after- market total dollar sales and (2.) customer ranking report by aftermarket gross profit margin percent. Who's paying your bills? Which ones should be developed? Analyze what your customers are purchasing from someone else that they can purchase from you. How can you win that busi- ness?

Maybe if you had it available they would buy it from you? %XLOG8S7LPH6WUDWHJLHVIRU
