How to Build a Reliable Restaurant Team You Can Count On
End the cycle of turnover and stress. Learn how to attract, train, and keep the right people so your restaurant runs smoothly without constant hiring headaches.
Finding and keeping good employees has never been harder. High turnover and constant training cycles drain your time, money, and energy.
Most restaurant owners think labor is a fixed expense they can’t change.
Successful restaurant owners don’t rely on luck. They build systems and cultures that attract, train, and keep great people.
With the right approach, you can:
-
Create a culture where people want to stay
-
Train staff for consistent performance
-
Hold employees accountable without micromanaging

Building a reliable team comes down to you. Watch these three videos to get started:
7 Things to Look for When Interviewing for Restaurant Managers for the Kitchen
Let’s first talk about common things that happen in a restaurant that lead you to hire the wrong person. Then let’s talk about the seven things to look for when interviewing restaurant managers for the kitchen.

Why It Is OK to Let a Restaurant Manager Go
In this episode of my podcast, "The Restaurant Prosperity Formula," I want to teach you how to know when it’s time to fire a manager, why I would rather run short staffed than have the wrong people on my team and what to do put yourself in a position where when a manager leaves voluntarily or through disciplinary action, you’re not worried about it.

“I didn’t have the money. I was $10,000–$30,000 short on payroll some months. But I knew without a coach, without someone to train me on the things I didn’t know, I wouldn’t make it. We would’ve shut our doors within the first year. Joining the program didn’t just save my business, it changed my life.”

Matt Jacobs
“The biggest thing for me was getting my freedom back — and I wasn’t expecting it to happen so quickly. It’s worth every single penny — the money we’ve saved from learning the systems, and the time we’ve gained back, has made us thousands and thousands of dollars.”
