Note: In Your Business is now What’s Next? We’ve refreshed the name, but the conversations you love are still here. These bonus episodes were originally released under In Your Business and remain part of our archive. In this mouthwatering episode of In Your Business, we sit down with Lauren Shultz, the General Manager of Buddy’s All-American Barbecue. For 24 years, Buddy’s has been a culinary institution in Huntington, known for its great barbecue, ice-cold beer, and killer wings. Earlier this year, they took a bold step and opened a second location in Milton. Join us as we discuss the strategic decision-making process behind the expansion, explore the challenges and triumphs of setting up the new location, and learn about the intricate process of hiring and training a new team. Lauren shares invaluable lessons learned along the way and provides a candid look at what it takes to grow a beloved local brand.
