„2014 a fost un an foarte important pentru Fashion Days pentru c? am schimbat modelul de business. Practic, Fashion Days s-a transformat dintr-un club de «shopping» pe baz? de invita?ie care oferea campanii limitate în timp ?i cantitate într-un magazin online deschis publicului larg unde clien?ii au la dispozi?ie o gam? variat? de peste 500.000 de produse de la peste 1.000 de branduri. Înainte vindeam doar colec?ii mai vechi ale diferitelor branduri, îns? acum cea mai mare parte din portofoliul nostru de produse este format? din cele mai noi colec?ii ale brandurilor“, a declarat pentru ZF Evgeniya Markova, directorul de marketing din cadrul grupului Fashion Days

A few months ago, I blogged about a formula I came across at a board meeting a while back that says your year over year growth rate plus your pre-tax operating margins need to be at least forty percent. Meaning you can grow at 100% per year and have operating margins of -60%. Or you can have flat growth and have 40% operating margins. Or you can grow at 20% per year and have 20% operating margins. There is no magic to the forty percent target, but I do like establishing some relationship between acceptable levels of profitability (or losses) and growth. Too many times I have seen companies invest in growth for growth sake without having any constraints or sanity checks on that investment and the losses that result from that investment.
