The employees all down the line are constantly on the watch to stop leaks, because they know the results Of their work are the basis of daily and monthly comparisons in your office. The salesman on the road knows which of the lines in his sample case bring a big profit and which sell at a small margin. Instead of working in haphazard fashion, every member of the organization from your desk to the day laborer is working on an assured basis Of facts.
