The 21 Laws of Owning and Running a Bar: The Irrefutable Laws That the Most Successful Owners Use to Drive Traffic, Inspire Their Staff, Cut Costs and Skyrocket Their Profits
The harsh reality is, bar managers suck. Sorry, but it's true. The reason we know this is true is because the #1 reason that bars and restaurants fail today is because of poor management, and the #1 reason for poor management is that there is so little education on how to run a bar successfully. The 21 Laws of Owning and Running a Bar delivers the core necessities that owners and managers must focus on in order to not only successfully bring in more customers and profit, but perform the most difficult task of leading and inspiring the staff in an industry with the highest turnover rate in mainstream business.
Written by 25 year industry veteran, bar consultant, trainer, author and business owner, Dave Allred became driven to write the 21 Laws after speaking with and asking more than 50 owners and managers what their biggest headaches were on a daily basis, and then uncovering their recipes they use for erasing those headaches and propelling their business to remarkable heights of success and profitability.
The 21 Laws are based on the same recurring successes from these 50+ owners and managers that surfaced time and time again when analyzing what they were doing to achieve massive success, including customer service, marketing, hiring the right employee, the importance of having systems in place, perceived value, leadership, inventory management & cost controls and a whole lot more.
If you are struggling and overwhelmed, or if you are doing ok but you want to take it to the next level, then learn how to stop running a bar and start running a business (and yes, there is a difference). The 21 Laws exposes the same exact problems you face every day in your bar, and then it shows you how to eliminate them and rise to the top of your demographic.
