You can have a packed dining room and still be bleeding money, and most owners don’t realize it until it hurts.

The real problem isn’t that you’re not busy, it’s that you’re guessing which hours actually pay the bills instead of looking at what the numbers are quietly trying to tell you.

In this episode, I walk you through a simple 5-minute daily habit that shows you exactly which shifts are truly profitable and which ones are just keeping the lights on.

You’ll see how to spot your strongest dayparts, where labor is quietly eating your margins, and where small adjustments in hours, staffing, or promos could pay off big.

By the end, you won’t just feel busy, you’ll know, in black and white, when your restaurant actually makes money.
