Decrease the expense of products sold without changing your selling cost. A decline in cost of products sold will cause an expansion in net overall revenue. Finding lower-valued providers, less expensive unrefined substances, utilizing work saving innovation, and reevaluating, are far to bring down the expense of merchandise sold.

Increasing gross profit is a key aspect of growing your company's bottom line. The first step is to understand and track the costs associated with producing, distributing, and selling your product or service. This will help you identify areas where you can reduce costs. Next, you may want to consider raising prices, lowering the cost of goods sold and increasing sales volume.
Here are a few ways to increase gross profit without increasing sales:

-Increase prices:

-There's no way around it; if you want to increase your gross profit, you have to increase your prices. Increasing prices can be a scary thing, especially for business owners who work with or sell to low-income consumers. But if you don't increase your prices, you can't make more money—and you might not even be able to stay in business. If you need ideas for how to explain your price increases to clients and customers, see the next section: "Explaining price increases" below.

-Reduce costs:

-If you're reluctant to increase prices, another way to increase gross profit is by reducing costs. In fact, reducing costs is important regardless of whether or not you decide to raise prices (although it may be less urgent). Reducing costs allows businesses to allocate more money toward other parts of the company's budget—for example, hiring additional workers or buying better equipment that can improve productivity and lead to higher sales in the future. It also helps with staying competitive in the market.

It is actually pretty easy , one of the ways to increase business gross profit is to lower the cost of production or expenditure spent in the producing of business groups and services . Sometimes it is not the business owners fault on why is cost of business expenditure is on a high rate it could be as a result of economic and political instability of the country or region in which he or she resides that may spike up the cost of production and so they do not have any way two possibly reduce the cost of production but have to abide . institution like this , it is advised that a business owner do not focus on the cost of producing all business product or commodity rather he must focus on the cost of producing product or commodity that customers and consumers are more likely to buy . In this way he will be able to make profit and not losses .

Another way to also accumulate higher gross profit to net loss is to make sure that the assets of your business organisations ranging from machines to office equipment should be in good condition so as not to spend extra money meant for replacing or re-buying business stock and inventory for the repairing of damaged and breakdowned business machines and equipment .

I agree with you and your point of view is great. But you need to keep balance between production cost and selling price. If it can be as affordable as the general people then you have make profit a lot.

Gross profit helps you to determine the overall health of your business. You can increase gross profit by increasing expenses, decreasing expenses or by increasing revenue.

Increasing Revenue
A simple way to increase gross profit is to increase your revenue. Offer a bundle deal that includes more services than currently offered for the same price. Offer purchase incentives for customers who buy in bulk or who return regularly. Give loyalty rewards for customers who shop with you often, such as a free service after five paid services. Research new ways to market your products and services, such as through community events, social media or YouTube videos.

Decreasing Expenses
Decreasing expenses is another way to increase gross profit. If you are using local contractors to do work for you, look into hiring them as full-time employees instead of paying a contractor fee each time they do a job for you. Consider holding meetings via video chat rather than renting out a meeting room, which can be cheaper and more efficient. If you are paying for marketing services that aren't bringing in new customers, consider cutting these expenses from your budget and exploring new marketing methods.

Increasing Expenses
You can also increase gross profit by increasing expenses that is, if your increased expense results in a greater profit.
