Business Basics

We all love the rush of restaurant business, it's in our blood, we hustle through a shift, make great food and drinks, we get to meet cool people and put a big smile on their face! As the owner or manager you must also pay attention to the business basics and run a tight ship. To do that you must build an effective OPERATING SYSTEM for your business.

Business Basics

I’ve been in the restaurant business since 1975 and I just like you I’ve had good and bad days. The Great Recession of 2009 made me wake up and smell the coffee. I created a bullet proof restaurant management system that works in any economy. This system will work for you!

Most restaurant owners and managers try to balance hundreds of un-productive tasks every day. The result is that they are overworked, frustrated and their business is holding on by a thread.
I will teach you to focus your time and energy on FIVE Basic Fundamentals that will completely transform your business. To run a successful restaurant you only need to focus on FIVE things.

These Five Basic Fundamentals Are:
Manage Your Restaurant Like a Business
Deliver The Customer Promise
Build a Winning Team
Maximize Sales
Control Costs

These FIVE Basic Fundamentals must be the goal of your entire team. Every manager, waiter, host, cook, dishwasher and bus boy must spend 100% of their time working toward the accomplishment of these FIVE goals. Any activity that does not move your restaurant toward the achievement of these FIVE Basic Fundamentals is wasteful, irrelevant and must be stopped immediately!

You cannot afford to have people on your team with a different agenda. These FIVE things are the ONLY items on the agenda. These FIVE Fundamentals will have a dramatic effect on your bottom line in the next 30-days and will literally change your life…
