Beyond The Monthly Close: How To Leverage AI & Data Analytics To Understand & Anticipate Business Performance  

AI and Analytics are rapidly reshaping the finance function, but many finance professionals in the restaurant industry are still constrained by fragmented data, limited visibility into real time profitability, and a reliance on backward‑looking monthly financials. In this webinar, we’ll set practical, achievable expectations for professionals seeking to use analytics and AI to improve performance today, not someday. We’ll explore some common problem statements for those looking for insights from their point-of-sale system data, the current state of AI technologies, and realistic pathways to turn existing data into actionable profitability signals.

Join our featured speaker, Geoff Marsh, Managing Partner, AMEND Consulting, who brings deep experience and expertise helping organizations turn complex data into actionable insight. Geoff will  share a pragmatic perspective on how finance leaders can begin leveraging analytics and AI today to drive smarter, faster decisions.
