to go the extra mile
to make an extra effort in making a deal or providing service (from the Biblical proverb “if someone asks you to walk one mile, walk two miles”)
EXAMPLE:
“In order to provide the best customer service our computer systems company always went the extra mile and provided free installation and user training at the customer’s worksite.”
to go belly-up
in business, to collapse; to go out of business (“belly” means stomach, so going belly-up means to turn on your back and float like a dead fish)
EXAMPLE:
My brother’s company went belly-up last month when its revenues were far below its monthly debts, so now he’s looking for a job.
to have the inside track
to have a special advantage that helps you win (in a race on a circular racecourse the track closest to the middle is called the “inside track” and is shorter than outer tracks)
EXAMPLE:
Because Mr. Jones had worked in our industry for 20 years and knew all the customers and their particular needs, he had the inside track on getting the job as Vice President of Sales at our company.
