Many restaurant owners think about closing their restaurant one day a week to reduce stress and reclaim their time.
Before they make that decision, they need to ask a more important question: What problem are they actually trying to solve?
In this episode of The Restaurant Growth Accelerator Podcast, Andrew Scott shares why reducing your operating hours is often a temporary fix - not a long-term solution.
Drawing on nearly 20 years as a multi-unit restaurant owner, Andrew explains how restaurant owners can identify the real bottlenecks holding their business back, build systems that reduce owner dependence, and create a restaurant that delivers both profit and freedom.
