Quitting smoking or sticking on a jumper instead of turning up the central heating are both good ideas that will save you money every day.

Our Cost Control Checklist moves along the same principle. Mindful of the increasing influence finance directors have across their businesses while cash remains king, we’ve come up with a list of ten simple ways to instil the habit of cost awareness now and preserve it through better economic days – and we’ve got ideas on how to bring non-financial departments with you.
