Conventional accounting uses the logical (albeit, flawed) formula: Sales - Expenses = Profit. The problem is, businesses are run by humans, and humans aren't always logical. Serial entrepreneur Mike Michalowicz has developed a behavioral approach to accounting to flip the formula: Sales - Profit = Expenses. Just as the most effective weight loss strategy is to limit portions by using smaller plates, Michalowicz shows that by taking profit first and apportioning only what remains for expenses, entrepreneurs will transform their businesses from cash-eating monsters to profitable cash cows.

When managers take care of the staff, the staff will take care of the guests, and the guests will always come back! This training book is all about "Restaurant Soft Skills". It shows how individual actions have a direct or indirect effect on others. Understanding the significance of these skills and incorporating the relevance of these concepts, ideas, and strategies will enable restaurant owners and managers to retain staff, decrease problems, create respect, increase profits, and increase customer satisfaction!
Publisher's Summary
Let’s start your restaurant legacy right now, right here!
National chains and single independent restaurants all started with an individual and an idea. A concept. A dream.
Small ideas can grow into big business. Who would have thought that a guy with a milkshake machine could start a hamburger empire? A pizza made in a garage would start today’s pizza wars? A guy with a pressure-cooker would start a fried chicken phenomena?
Business ownership has always been part of the all-American dream. Restaurants are the largest entrepreneurial opportunity in America for starting the dream.
According to Restaraunt.org, the industry stands as follows:
- $799 billion: Restaurant industry sales.
- 1 million+: Restaurant locations in the United States.
- 14.7 million: Restaurant industry employees.
- 1.6 million: New restaurant jobs created by the year 2027.
- 10%: Restaurant workforce as part of the overall U.S. workforce.
- 9 in 10: Restaurant managers who started at entry level.
- 8 in 10: Restaurant owners who started their industry careers in entry-level positions.
- 9 in 10: Restaurants with fewer than 50 employees.
- 7 in 10: Restaurants that are single-unit operations.
In this book, you will realize why your concept and theme are critical. Factors to include in a business plan. How to start your restaurant, how to grow and how to be successful. It is a detail guide that will guide you through the process.
