Concretes Instead of Theory

Paweł joined Złoty Standard Marketing in October 2016. For 9 years, he worked as a financial controller in a furniture factory near Siedlce. There he learned that in business, every zloty spent on production counts. In our company, he doesn't deal with pretty presentations, but with hard data in Excel. His task is simple: find money leaking from your company without your knowledge.

In 2023, Paweł conducted exactly 34 margin audits for medium enterprises. In one case, for a spare parts wholesaler, he identified errors in pricing that cost the owner 142,400 PLN annually. Paweł doesn't promise miracles. He checks invoices, statements, and contracts. We talk straight about money because we know only that builds a stable business.

Work Method Based on Numbers

Paweł needs an average of 4 working days for a preliminary analysis of your costs. General descriptions don't interest him. He checks facts, not promises. He analyzes purchasing history from the last 22 months and compares it with market prices. Thanks to this, he manages to lower fixed costs for our clients by an average of 12.7% without laying off employees and without cutting product quality.

  • Detecting hidden costs in logistics and storage.
  • Fixing price lists that stopped earning due to inflation.
  • Verification of contracts with utility and external service providers.
  • Preparation of a margin recovery plan in 14-30 days.

Your business must earn, not just generate turnover. Paweł often says that high revenue with a low margin is a direct path to bankruptcy. In June 2024, he helped a transport company from Radom negotiate new fuel rates, which translated into 8,400 PLN of real savings every month. These are hard proofs of his effectiveness.

If you feel you are working more and more, but the balance on the account remains the same as two years ago, Paweł is the person you should talk to first. You won't hear marketing slogans from him. We count every zloty, which is why you will get a report from him where it's clear as day where you are losing capital.
