Think hiring a restaurant manager will free up your time and boost profits?
Think again.
Many restaurant owners watch sales tank, staff turnover explode, and food costs spiral out of control - often within months - because they made one fatal management mistake.
In this episode of Restaurant Growth Accelerator, I share my personal story of opening a second location, hiring a manager, and watching my once-successful business collapse.
You’ll hear exactly how promoting the wrong person - without proper restaurant management training - led to burnout, lost staff, and more.
Tune in to discover:
✅The critical difference between worker skills vs. management skills most owners overlook
✅Why promoting your best worker can create your worst manager
✅How to hire restaurant managers who WILL do the job (not just those who CAN do it)
✅A proven 6 to 8-month restaurant manager training program that builds real leadership skills
✅The anonymous employee survey system that reveals hidden management problems before they explode
You’ll learn how to set management expectations, run performance evaluations, and build a restaurant management system that works in any multi-location or independent restaurant.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
