After 15+ years of advising and now coaching restaurant/bar owners, here's the hard truth I wish I'd known earlier:

The most expensive mistakes in this industry aren't the tangible ones - like over-ordering product or inefficient scheduling. The real costly mistakes come from lacking clear, objective perspective on where your business is heading.

Operators often get caught in the daily grind - fighting fires, managing staff, handling inventory. We're so deep in operations that we can't see the forest for the trees. I lived this reality, and now I watch countless owners repeat these same patterns.

The cost? It's not just financial. It's:

- Burning out because you're always reacting instead of strategizing
- Missing opportunities for growth and innovation
- Watching profits slip through cracks you're too busy to notice
- Sacrificing personal life because the business runs you, not vice versa

Having a coach isn't just about getting advice - it's about having someone who's been in your shoes, who can provide that crucial outside perspective and help create a clear roadmap for success.

A coach helps you develop solid business strategies, enhance your operations, and implement systems that work while you sleep.

Think about it: Professional athletes have coaches. CEOs have coaches. Yet many restaurant owners try to figure it all out alone, making expensive mistakes along the way that could have been avoided with proper guidance .

The return on investment? When you have a clear strategy and roadmap:

- Your operations become more efficient
- Staff training improves
- Customer satisfaction increases
- Profits grow through strategic planning rather than luck
- You regain control of your time and life

I spent years learning these lessons the hard way. Now I help others skip that painful (and expensive) learning curve. Sometimes the smartest investment isn't in new equipment or inventory - it's in gaining the perspective and guidance that will transform your business for years to come.

Ready to stop making expensive mistakes and start building a strategic roadmap to success? I've partnered up with legendary bar coach Sean Finter, and we have an offer that might get you pretty excited about your bar in 2025.
