00:00:32,300 got ding this week because they were missing invoices
00:00:34,866 which means we're wasting time chasing a piece of paper
00:00:37,866 and we wasting our energy creating accurate numbers

00:01:14,066 so that the percentage of sales
00:01:15,800 run in a way we can't account for accurately

00:01:20,466 so they can count inventory fast and make less errors

00:01:26,866 got ding this week for organization
00:01:28,966 this is the bar that in a previous video we mentioned
00:01:31,266 has a huge inventory on hand
00:01:32,766 $120,000 at cost because they have such high sales
00:01:36,766 and 260 products on hand
00:01:39,766 so just means if you're not so organized
00:01:44,300 if you have a big inventory
00:01:45,200 it's even more important to be organized
00:01:47,033 so that bartenders can find things
