In other words, gross profit (<\/span><b>what you report at the end of the year<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) is a much more important number than the profit margin you collect on each sale.

To be successful and get the most bang for your buck, you simply need to find a balance between profit margin and sales volume.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This can be done by creating a pricing matrix and using it to strike the right balance between profit and volume.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-57010 aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.revolutionparts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2021-05-13-at-3.36.37-PM-300x182.png\" alt=\"sample pricing matrix for parts managers\" width=\"300\" height=\"182\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By grouping your parts and accessories based on their cost, you can determine a standard for how much of a profit margin you are willing to accept on those parts.

In other words, don\u2019t freak out if your competitively-priced cost+ model doesn\u2019t lead to a crazy return on its own. <strong>Start winning the volume game and add a nice kickback to your parts revenue<\/strong> to get your real total return.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Win the Parts Game with RevolutionParts<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Setting up an online parts and accessories business doesn\u2019t have to be difficult, and it doesn\u2019t have to be a lot of work.
