Ever paid yourself $12,000 for a full year of work? I have. And I worked 17-hour days for the embarrassing salary - worse still, my restaurant didn’t move an inch.

I worked 10 AM to 3 AM, I cut staff, and I made every sandwich myself - yet six months later, my business was in the exact same place. In this episode of the Restaurant Growth Accelerator podcast, Andrew Scott and Dave Doyle share the difference between urgent and important in your restaurant.

You’ll also learn a simple rent-to-sales test that tells you if your real problem is sales or costs. And how Andrew got off the line for a couple of hours a day, built catering and delivery, and tripled his restaurant sales over about three years.

You’ll also hear why Andrew held on to cash after selling his restaurants, and how that saved him.  If you’re a restaurant owner stuck working in your business instead of on it, set aside an hour a day, protected like a shift.

Hit play now and block out one hour this week for the work that will actually grow your restaurant.
