Bookstore Finance Seminar - Winter Institute 2018

Registration for the Bookstore Finance Seminar has closed.

Monday, January 22, 2018 - 10:00am to 4:00pm

Pre-registration required; no fee. Space is limited; two booksellers per member company maximum
Open to Winter Institute registered booksellers, this 101-level seminar will cover the fundamentals of budgeting, understanding cash flow, business financing, bookkeeping, and financial statements. The workshop will include a segment focusing on strategies for achieving higher profits and improving cash flow. The program will conclude with an interactive group discussion, working through an example of how booksellers can use their store’s financial information to make sound business decisions. The seminar will concentrate on bookstore finances as opposed to bookstore accounting, and though it will be helpful for attendees to be familiar with basic bookstore finances, deep financial experience is not required. Lunch will be served. Booksellers are encouraged to stay for the entirety of the workshop to receive the full benefit of both financial theory and practice.
