Tracking Financial Performance in the Craft Beverage Production Industry

It takes a lot of money to build and run a craft beverage production business, but it's not always clear how to move from topline budgeting to actionable, tactical steps to improve financial performance. Each team has a tangible impact on the bottom line, so how can leadership make sure that each is on track and make adjustments when they're not?

In this webinar, Craft Beverage Assistance Manager Chris Van Orden will ask Kary Shumway, founder of Beer Business Finance, about the ways in which operational management can improve a brewery, winery, or distillery's financial position.

With more than 20 years of experience in the beer industry, Kary helps brewery owners and managers improve profitability, cash flow, and financial decision-making.
