This will become the new face of ManageByStats, and we feel it greatly improves navigation and ease of use.  As with any new thing, of course, it takes some getting used to, but we think you’ll find the flow of this updated interface groups the tools more logically and flows more naturally.

Additional Expenses

Did you know you can add additional, general business expenses in your MBS, and let the system use those expenses in profit calculations?

Additional Expenses is a relatively new feature, and while we announced it a few weeks ago, it’s worth mentioning again for anyone who might’ve missed it.

ManageByStats is not an accounting program, but we do provide as much information as possible for you to manage your business.

A big part of knowing the health of your business is knowing your Profit, and many things can go into that.

COGS (Cost of Goods Sold) and Inbound Shipping are two of the most vital bits of info used to determine profitability. There can be, however, and generally are, other, company expenses not covered by direct product costs. Expenses you’d like to factor against sales to more accurately determine profitability.

Additional Expenses is where you set these values.

HUMOR

A senior citizen called her husband during his drive home.

“Herman, I just heard on the news that there’s a car going the wrong way on Interstate 90. Please be careful!”

Herman replied, “It’s not just one car. There’s hundreds of them!”

I ran into an old school friend at the store today. He started showing off, talking about his well paid job and expensive sports cars.

Then he pulled out his phone and showed me a photo of his wife and said, “She’s beautiful, isn’t she?”

I said, “If you think she’s gorgeous, you should see my girlfriend.”

He said, “Why? Is she a stunner?”

“No,”  I said.  “She’s an optometrist.”

Badump bump.
