When it comes to managing Cost of Goods Sold, it’s critical to have a strategy for tracking and reducing expenditures – which is why our Veterinary Care Logistics community always has lots of questions on the topic! It’s also why we’re all about COGS on this episode of Inventory Nation when Host Nicole Clausen shares her step-by-step approach to securing your clinic’s all-important bottom line. We’re looking at how to define your clinic’s operational profile and understand the best practices necessary to put your team on solid ground. It’s after that, says Nicole, that inventory managers can really start to dig deep and pinpoint why costs might be high, where adjustments to spending versus revenue can be made and how to bring your overall equation into perfect balance. Managing COGS isn’t just about trying to spend less! The Holy Grail of COGS combines both reducing expenditures and generating revenue for your entire veterinary clinic’s long-term bottom-line health. Get the overview of what factors determine your practice’s individual profile and which key performance indicators to track. Not for nothing, Nicole has been dubbed “the COGS Queen” by her admirers. Tune into this breakdown and you’ll know why – and be inspired to keep coming back for more!

Don’t forget that June 5th is Inventory Manager Appreciation Day! Celebrate that person who keeps things humming along at your veterinary practice – even if it means celebrating yourself!
