DISCOVER 10 CHARACTERISTICS
OF A GROW GETTER
O
r High-growth companies are powered by people
who understand what it takes to get set for
growth—individuals with the vision and drive to
take their businesses to the nect level. We call these people
the Grow Getters.
Grow Getters know what growth looks like for their business
and how to achieve it. They invest where it counts and have
an integrated enterprise resource planning (ERP) system that
gives them the essential visibility and agility needed to act
for growth.
The 10 Grow Getter Characteristics
These characteristics come directly from research
commissioned by Epicor and conducted by MORAR
Consulting in 2016. Insights are based on interviews
conducted with more than 2,450 individuals in a variety of
industries. This article (and the demographics below) focuses
on the manufacturers we spoke to in our survey.
1. Grow Getters Focus Outside the
Business
Companies focused on growth are 2 times more likely
to look for external opportunities to grow their business,
compared to low-growth companies.
Low-growth companies rank cost management as the
highest factor in driving business growth.
Most manufacturers (33%) focus on the management
of internal operations such as cost control over expansion
(20%). High-growth manufacturers reverse the trend and
focus on external opportunities first.
2. Grow Getters Strategically Plan
High-growth companies are 2 times more likely than low-
growth companies to see strategic planning for growth
as important.
