Mike Mudrey: Your Restaurant Doesn't Need You
Description
What if the reason your restaurant runs on you is that you keep showing up?
Mike Mudrey bought a crêperie in East Lansing with no restaurant experience and a corporate job he had no intention of leaving. Nine years and four locations later he still has both, and one of his restaurants sits over an hour from where he lives. Never being able to work the floor is what forced him to build systems instead of habits.
In this conversation, we get into why every question you answer twice should become a system, how prepaid and pre-selected bookings drove his no-shows and food waste close to zero, and why the money was never in the crêpe.
If your operation stops working the week you take off, this one is for you.
