Set your Key Performance Indicators, or KPIs, which measure your company's performance outcomes against internal or external targets, such as financial and operational goals. Internal targets or goals refer to your company’s business strategy and objectives, while external targets or goals refer to your industry peers and competitors. KPI examples would include targets of increasing sales by a certain percent, increasing customer retention, increasing profits or decreasing certain expenses. Key performance indicators related to financial performance focus on profitability, liquidity, solvency, and efficiency, utilizing financial ratios to measure financial results. For example, in measuring profitability, the Net Profit Margin ratio measures what percent of total revenue ends up as net income for your company after all expenses and taxes are considered. In measuring liquidity, the current ratio measures whether your company can pay its short-term obligations with the short-term assets, such as cash and cash equivalents, it has available on hand.
