2022 Fall Regionals: Decoding the P&L for Booksellers, Managers, and Owners

After traveling the country presenting education at the 2022 Fall Regional Association Tradeshows, ABA presented a virtual encore of Decoding the P&L for Booksellers, Managers, and Owners. A bookstore's profit and loss statement (P&L) is a critical tool for evaluating a store's overall performance. Join ABA staff on a walk-through of a bookstore P&L statement as we lay a groundwork for understanding bookstore financials, decode individual line items to identify opportunities for improved profitability, discuss how to use ABA's ABACUS Report, and consider ways to share financials with staff in a meaningful and cooperative manner. Session Video & Resources Decoding the P&L was presented at the 2022 Fall Regional Association Tradeshows.
