P&L Management
The P&L is the operating scorecard, but results improve only when every line is connected to controllable behavior. Cole analyzes trends, mix, pricing, labor deployment, purchasing, waste, discounts, occupancy, and overhead; identifies the few drivers creating the largest variance; and installs a review rhythm that turns weekly data into accountable action.
