Why Your Bar P&L Is Not Just A Monthly Report Card

Your P&L is not a monthly report card.
It is where your bar shows you what is getting expensive.
Most owners look at net profit and think they understand the month.
They do not. Net profit tells you the result.
It does not tell you where the problem started.
In this episode, I break down how to read your P&L like an operator, including prime cost, gross profit, net profit, operating expenses, and the timing issues that make your numbers confusing.
Because strong sales do not always mean a healthy bar.
And if you only check the numbers after the month ends, you are already late.
Your P&L should not just tell you what happened.
It should show you what to fix next.
