"profit is taking a header..."?

Hey guys,

does anyone know what the phrase "the profit is taking a header..." mean?

I found it in a practice case about sales. sorry if this is a really basic question, i'm pretty new to this!

thanks!

haha it's cool.

heres a hint: What would you think i meant if i said: "Some dude just took a header off the Brooklyn Bridge"

That he was getting ready to take a corner kick?
