Swisher systems has annual revenues of approximately $20 million of that $20 million, $8 million, 40 percent of revenue, goes into the purchasing of mate- up the majority of the potential profit margin: 20 percent for direct overhead and 5 percent for indirect overhead, which includes selling and administration The high, overhead is a concern but appears to be unavoidable for a small company trying to grow. A sales call center was implemented over a year ago, which adds 10 more members to the payroll along with a marketing person who creates all of the written literature and designs marketing campaigns. This leaves a margin of about 15 percent for profit. This number can fluctuate due to negotiations with 3 customers. Swisher Systems keeps approximately $12,000,000 of supply inventory on hand at any given point. This gives Swisher Systems approximately two inventory turns per year. Swisher Systems is constantly looking for ways to im- prove its financial status but appears to be overall stable with over 55 years in the business.
