One of the major solution to increase profit in a business is to increase sales.  More sales means more profit.  It can be increased through offering discounts, marketing promotions, advertisements and multi level marketing where the business use people to spread the news about the business and offers commission to them.  Making the price competitive also increases the sales which can improve the business' profit.

It is also a great help to reduce the maintenance cost by improving the efficiency of every action made in line with business transaction.  Efficiency also helps a lot if in case for the sake of improving profit we decided to open new branches in other places with possible diversified products.

There is nothing wrong with what you said, maybe the only thing I can add is that we make our customers feel the importance of them in the business that we have, then the quality service should always be lumelevel-up as time goes on. It is also necessary to maintain 100% customer satisfaction and to maintain this, the quality products will also be maintained.
Because if all that is implemented correctly, surely in the near future they will promote your business to their friends because they know how you provide value to them.

Marketing and Branding is obviously number one. You want an example? Apple iPhones are marginally worse than Samsung galaxies, and yet they are mostly used, why? Because its a brand, its a brand so much ingrained in the minds of Americans that they prefer it by like %90+ margin, sure its closer in other parts of the world, and I am sure in South Korea Samsung is heavily preferred as well, but that is normal because its technically speaking a better phone. Just put down every technical data on a piece of paper, and you will realize why its better. And yet, iPhone is preferred more. Same with MacBooks, its a horrible laptop that nobody should pay that much for, but they do, why? Because of branding and marketing. Do that very well, and get a good looking and good feeling product (can't be too shitty, it needs to be close enough at least) and you can sell anything to anyone.

Advertising and brand recognition is one of the best way in boosting your profits. When you invest in advertising your business out there, people become more familiar with your products or services. Even better if you have something unique that you can use to promote your business. Like a slogan, or a product or anything that when people see will immediately recognize which business it is. The more the people recognize your business, the more you will be earning. But don't expect to earn a lot after few days of advertisement. In a long term thing and it will give you some good ROI after few months.
I agree that they could really boost profits from your business. However, I still believe that even if you always do that, if there is no good customer service that is being applied in your business, people will not bite whatever advertising you may do. Customers will always first look on how the employees treat them, if they get satisfied with their services, then they will always follow whatever their advises or promotions they may suggest.

I would look at packaging of products after purchase or for products for a particular reason.
The way goods are packed or presented matters to the customers they may even contribute to pay for you packing their products neatly upon purchase.
Also, I would also stress on the point of discounts and freebie most times. Customers do feel appreciated and come for more patronage.
These are some of the ways I know that increases profit in a business.

That is true, even small discounts matter to the masses. Let's say 99cents or more.
But if they do compare it with others, they will surely buy it from your shop.
People want discounted items even if it is not much. That's how consumers are.
Small freebies are good attraction also. It won't hurt your business if you will give it from time to time.
But the impact of such move will be lasting for some, and who knows, such move will give them reason to be loyal at your shop?
Rewards, gift cards, vouchers, discount cards and small freebies are great marketing tools to sustain your business.
It will remind people or customers that you don't forget them. A simple gesture will give you loyal patrons in the long run.

I'm willing to bet, if I don't maintain my relationship with the customers that I consider as my sister then my sales will not be as good as they are now.
Manage your income and expenses personally, don't be tempted to build a new business that is not your expertise because all of that is important to maintain your financial stability in business. Increasing profits in business requires hard work, good management and budget. But of course this really depends on who is running the business and how you compete with others.

However, the CRM referred to by @Renampun is also a part of business management systems. Fanbase management is crucial nowadays, even if you have an honest business, if your fanbase is not well managed, the chances of repeat orders will be very small. CRM teaches us how to make customers buy our products or services more than once, but we must also listen to customer feedback in order to provide good service.

Many businesses have survived for a long time due to clever business management in managing customers. Buyer development will continue to increase because the status of "buyer is king" is still felt by consumers.

There are many ways to follow to increase profits in business.  And if you want to know about this professionally, I would suggest you to meet a business idea consultant. But I personally think that the first thing to do to increase the profit in the business is to add new things daily, as well as to be aware of the global news. To get an idea about the rating of what kind of needs people have. And not following the old strategies, adding new ones or updating them.

In business, you really need customers because they are your source of income. Maintaining good relations with customers is mandatory, but of course in the context of providing the best service you can. IMO - there are still many important tips to apply when we build a business, even though customers are number one but good management is also very important.
Customers are a priority for the best service, besides they are your source of income but they are also another part that will benefit your business, they will also invite other people to buy your product because of recommendations from your customers, so in business providing the best service for one customer will bring in more customers.

We must focus on the main business and not be tempted by other businesses with higher income issues, so you will not run your business optimally and your business will fall apart, focus on developing the business until it is successful and managing financial management must be professional so that the business budget is not allowed to be used for other purposes. If your business is already successful, then your business partners with relevant businesses to build a large business circle.

of course, maintaining relationships with consumers is a magical thing, I have a customer that I really care about, she diligently buys my merchandise and even offers to be my reseller. I visited her several times and saw that she was someone who could be trusted and humble. apart from that I also gave her and her child birthday gifts several times and she even considered me her sister.

if you run a business, you must be able to maintain good human relations because finding someone who is honest - trustworthy - kind to you is a treasure that cannot be exchanged for anything.
This is a lesson often forgotten by those which just look at their balance sheet at the end of the month and they just see a bunch of numbers, but they forget that their clients are humans, so if you do not treat them well and make a point of doing so if they are your long term clients then they are bound to leave and replace you for a business that does, even if they have to overpay for the privilege, this means that any business regardless of the quality of their product still needs to try to give the best customer service they can or risk being replaced by another business which does.

that's right, many entrepreneurs forget how important CRM is (the term for that can be seen in the article below)

Customer relationship management (CRM) is the combination of practices, strategies and technologies that companies use to manage and analyze customer interactions and data throughout the customer lifecycle. The goal is to improve customer service relationships and assist in customer retention and drive sales growth. CRM systems compile customer data across different channels, or points of contact, between the customer and the company, which could include the company's website, telephone, live chat, direct mail, marketing materials and social networks.

the benefits that we get when we manage to maintain relationships with our clients are really big, you could even say they might be the opening of our fortune in the future. Large companies that until now still have stable consumers are those who understand how important the psychological relationship with consumers is.

I'm willing to bet, if I don't maintain my relationship with the customers that I consider as my sister then my sales will not be as good as they are now.
If you are in customer service industry, customers should always be considered, also with other fields of business. Problem with some businesses is that they tend to lessen their quality of service as they are being more known which is something a business owner should avoid. Costing is a factor which causes these changes but atleast, there are other ways to cope such as adjusting the price but maintaining the product. In such way, your customers would still be patronizing what you are offering to them. It would always be the kind of service you are providing. Being not alone in the competition is enough to say that maintenance and improvement should be met as years would go by.

Prosperity in a business depends on an entrepreneur. If he has long planned to expand his business then he will surely get success. It is important to remember that the business you are serving may be done by others as well ‍. You have to find where your difference from them? Why will consumers come to you? What are your facilities that others cannot offer? etc. To provide more benefits which can be a strategy to grow your business. But if one can maintain customer relationship along with all these facilities then surely those customers will not go anywhere else. As a result, your business will expand further and you can increase your profit.
The profit in business depends alot on business efficiency and products quality.  Of you are efficient in your service your profit will increase eventually .

All those who are associated with business want to earn profit in business. But many people adopt wrong approach in business due to which they are deprived of earning profit. 
Business should adopt some ways to increase profit such as,

business should have good understanding of product service and customer needs. What kind of product the customer wants or what kind of product is more in demand in the market, that kind of product should be given more demand. 

Another thing is to avoid trying to make a certain amount of profit. not selling the product in the hope of making more profit.  And always try to buy good quality product at relatively low price which will have little chance of profit. 

Always try to retain old customers and do what will increase the demand of new customers. In that case, different offers can be given because people will be curious to accept the offer when they see the offer and this will increase your business. 

One of the most important factors in growing a business is treating customers well. Always try to make the customer satisfied with you.
If you can manage your business in this way then I think it is possible to earn more profit in business.

Please feel free to drop your own ideas on how to increase profit in businesses.
The best idea for increasing business profits is to make promotions more broadly and have branches in several areas where the market is visited by everyone and consistently serve every customer so that the effect you will receive for your business will be better. Because attracting enthusiasts or customers for the business that we open is a very difficult thing and it takes time to go through the process so that your business becomes more advanced and gets the results you want.

You have a great post about increasing profit in business but you never added embrace new technology. During the covid-19 season which causes the total lockdown some business owners that added cryptocurrency to their payment method had some increase in profit while some businesses make losses and another is prioritize customer satisfaction.
Prioritizing customer satisfaction is indeed important in running a business, but under certain conditions as you mentioned, every businessman must be able to take advantage of the momentum so that his business continues and does not lose money by applying services that are not usual for his business. For example, by making use of payments via cryptocurrency, although some business people still cannot use this method because it is not in accordance with their business, so it can only be used by some big business people in these conditions.

It is undeniable, increasing profits in business is the main goal of business people. Getting the profits that a businessman craves requires process, time, effort and hard work. In addition to the strategies the OP has mentioned, I would like to add a few points that can be applied in doing business to attract new customers and retain old ones.

Free services or complementary products can be added to increase the interest of visitors, for example offering free delivery services for goods that consumers have purchased. This strategy makes customers feel more connected to your place of business and makes them feel comfortable shopping at your place. Additional features need to be added in order to continue to survive from competitors around you.

For me to be able to increase profit in business, by improving your marketing strategies, expanding your customer, introducing new products or services, and of course taking care of your employees. Reducing cost expenses can be of help in increasing profit, like negotiating to suppliers for a better prices etc. Increase in prices specially if your products or services are in high demand. Expanding the market could also increase in profit like engaging in the social media platform which is a good marketing strategy, wherein a lot of customers now spend more time in social media and a lot of them used to buy through online platforms. In every business you should analyze and evaluate what kind of strategies will best work for your business.

I think providing customers with a good service and customer experience is essential to building loyalty and driving sales. In addition, you can offer discount vouchers and incentives to loyal customers, which can also help strengthen relationships and encourage repeat business. In addition, always actively absorb feedback from customers to improve and help identify growth opportunities. This way, businesses can build a solid reputation for quality and customer satisfaction, helping to increase sales and long-term success.
