Greetings Bar owners! As we head towards 2024, we've got your back on how you can set up your business to hit the ground running in the new year. This episode is chock-full of practical steps you need to take, and the strategies you need to implement. Buckle up as we talk about bookkeeping, managing your team, marketing your business, your physical facility, and setting big goals. We've got a treasure trove of insights on how you can leverage these key areas.
We turn our lens to inventory, pricing, and team performance.

We're not leaving out your relationships with suppliers and vendors either - Is it time for a switch? We'll talk about the best ways to gauge your team's performance and how to set the right challenges for them. But that's not all, we've also got the lowdown on how to evaluate and adjust your KPIs, and conduct effective employee reviews. Lastly, we're ready to help you set goals that are not just achievable but also relevant. We'll discuss how to create goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. Remember, the clock is ticking and there are only five weeks left in the year - it's time to jump into action!
