RESTAURANT NOT MAKING THE MONEY YOU ENVISIONED? WE CAN FIX THAT!
With decades of experience including restaurant ownership, we understand the inner workings of a restaurant and the frustrations that can go along with that. We know the challenges faced by our industry are unique and sometimes painful.
We first want to sit down with you to understand the challenges you are facing. This can sometimes be a blunt conversation, but we need to be rigorously honest in our assessment to be of the best use to you. We do not judge, we simply attempt to discover the right way to move forward. You help us to uncover the real, and perceived problems, and then we’ll decide how are we going to fix them. We want to make your restaurant a success and we want you to be able to recommend our services to others.
We will evaluate your vendors, costs, sales, recipes, portions, prices, market standards, menu design, staff performance, customer experience and customer retention just to name a few.
By analyzing everything about your business, from how you run your business, how your money is spent, inventory methods, preparation techniques, cost and revenue controls and yes, possible employee theft, we can find out where your money is being wasted instead of going into your pocket. Consider:
- Do you have a standardized accounting system? How about a qualified accountant?
- Do you use your P&L to properly track and control your business? Do you have a P&L?
- Do you have procedures and systems in place for daily activities? Do you follow them?
- Do you have portioning standards and do you weigh and measure items consistently?
- Do you manage your labor costs as closely as you should? Do you know your labor cost?
- Do you have detailed job descriptions for each employee? Are they properly enforced?
- Do you instill a high morale in your staff, or do you allow your frustrations to show?
- Do you have a positive advertising campaign and do you advertise regularly?
- Do you actively manage your social media? Do you respond to your customers posts?
- Do you feel your running your business or more like your business is running you?
These and all other aspects of your operation need to be analyzed and evaluated to improve your bottom line. There are no cookie cutter solutions.
