More revenue does not always mean more profit. In fact, the wrong kind of revenue can clog your cash flow, drain your energy, and silently destroy your margins. In this episode of the Say Yes To Profits® Podcast, Dr. Octavia Conner introduces the Revenue Quality Index (RQI), a powerful strategy that helps 7-figure CEOs measure the quality of their revenue, not just the quantity.

By learning how to identify, rate, and refine your income sources, you’ll discover how to eliminate profit-draining clients and projects while focusing on the revenue streams that create true, lasting, and predictable profitability

Why does more revenue not always mean more profit

How to identify low-quality revenue that drains your cash flow and team

What the Revenue Quality Index (RQI) is and how to calculate it

How to score each revenue stream for profitability, cash flow, client fit, and scalability

How to refocus your efforts on high-quality revenue to scale with ease and confidence

Not all revenue is created equally. Some income sources may look good on paper but secretly reduce profit margins and increase stress.

Use the Revenue Quality Index. Evaluate your revenue streams across profitability, cash flow, client fit, and scalability for a clear financial picture.

Eliminate or reshape low-quality revenue. Replace energy-draining clients and projects with high-value opportunities that generate ease and growth.

Prioritize high-quality profit. Focus on revenue that supports your mission, energizes your team, and scales sustainably.

• Take a moment to review each of your revenue streams. Instead of only asking “How much did this bring in?” ask:

  • What did it actually cost me to earn it?
    
    
  • Is it scalable, and can I scale it with ease?
    
    
  • Am I serving my ideal, profitable client with this revenue stream?
    
    

  Rank each using the RQI method. You may find that the biggest numbers on paper are producing the weakest profits in reality. The truth is in your numbers, listen to them and take action.
