DE: Hello and welcome to the programme Make or Break. My name is David
Evans. In today’s programme we look at the rise and fall of the American
tycoon, Alan Bond. A self-made millionaire, Bond has been a well-known
figure in the Australian business and on the world business stage. Dear
audience, you are welcome to ask questions and make your own comments. Q: Was Bond basically a businessman, I mean did he invest millions of dollars
and how did he see a return of his investment? DE: Bond was a man who had always known exactly what he wanted and how
to get it, as he makes clear in this interview about his early years. Bond: I wanted to make a million before I was 21 and I started business when
I was 18. And I set myself a goal – I’d made a million by the time I was 21. Q: He got satisfied and lived peacefully ever after, didn’t he? DE: Of course not. He went on to make several more millions as a property
speculator in Perth during the boom years. Q: I remember there was the crash in the property market in the early 70s. Did it
cause any trouble in your business? Bond: Definitely yes. But it forced me to diversify my interests. I went into
mining, oil exploration and retail. Q: But things had not been going so well for you, as far as I know. Bond: Sure. I still had a vast amount of capital tied up in property – and the
property market was dead. I was losing my money and was forced to start
liquidating my assets. DE: Fortunately with access to enormous supplies of credit he embarked upon
one of the biggest takeover binges the world has ever seen. Bond: I was lucky and soon gained control of hundreds of companies all over the
world. Q: Lucky? From the reliable sources I got to know that Alan Bond finished the
decade with debts of $9.25 bn. One of the biggest debtors in the world. DE: That sounds amazing. We can ask Bond about his debts after a minute
break for advertising. Stay with us.

How to increase profit?
Profits are not fixed or guaranteed, there are ways a business owner can help to increase profit.
Increasing sales is a popular way to increase profit. Businesses try to increase sales by offering better quality products or services than competitors, by keeping prices at/or below the level of competitors, and by using promotional techniques, such as personal selling, creative displays, special sales, and advertising.
Profits can be increased when workers are more efficient. This means that workers must use scarce resources wisely. These resources include such things as time and supplies. For example, workers should spend time on the job working, rather than talking with others or taking care of personal matters. When workers are efficient, they are able to produce more for the company. Increased production can result in more sales and more profit. Many businesses reward employees for efficient work habits through monetary bonuses and other rewards. Some of the work habits, which are rewarded, are promptness, regular attendance, and superior performance. Increasing worker efficiency is receiving much attention as businesses realize just how much time and money can be saved.
Another way of increasing profit is decreasing expenses. Businesses can decrease expenses in several ways. They might consider eliminating some free services, such as delivery, gift wrapping, or alterations. Businesses must be certain that their expenditures in terms of cost of merchandise are at the best prices. Perhaps a new supplier would offer better prices or benefits than a current supplier. In addition, businesses should try to obtain the best rates for such expenses as advertising, insurance, etc., and should try to keep payroll expenses as low as possible without sacrificing service to customers. And, businesses should encourage workers to use resources-wisely. For example, turning off lights and equipment when not being used and not wasting supplies. Decreasing expenses is the best way that businesses can help to increase profit.
