Episode #221 30 Year Guru Dishes On Restaurant Success

You have to tune in this week as I’m speaking with Max Sheets, an illustrious 30 year veteran of restaurant start-ups, major restaurant chains and restaurant franchising. From concept and menu development to finding the real estate, staffing, leading by example, critical numbers and all-important brand building, Max has achieved restaurant success! Here’s a true restaurant evangelist! I speak to some pretty amazing people on the Restaurant RockStars Podcast, but every now and then I’m blown away by an episode that has so many powerful nuggets and key-learnings that every operator can benefit from. Now he’s doing it again, starting a restaurant chain with a new fast-growing restaurant concept, a restaurant chain called ChickNMax. Even though we’re all in the midst of this crazy pandemic, it’s not slowing Max down. In fact, stay tuned and you’ll learn some powerful ideas and concepts to apply to your own operation. We’ll be talking about starting a restaurant including: • Investing in your people and developing your team to be the foundation of your business • Involving and encouraging everyone in decision making, as the next great idea can come from any anyone • How “Knowing the Numbers” will set you free • Communicating your Safe Practices to your customer • Doing good and giving back not only feels good, but comes back around in many ways, some unseen and so much more...including restaurant success with restaurant franchising. I was so inspired by Max in this episode and you will be too. He mentions that “There’s No White Flag in his Bag” and as you can see, he’ll never quit!
