STARTUP & REPOSITIONING
Business Plans
Nothing is more important to help
you get your idea off the ground than a solid Business Plan. In order to
secure the funds needed in the shortest possible time your Business
Plan must be well thought, organized, accurate and thorough. Our
financial modeling and profit structure sections will demonstrate
to any investor that your concept is on solid ground from the
beginning.
Pitch Books
Once your investors are aligned,
the best way to secure the best possible location for the most
favorable terms is through your Pitch Book presentation.
Competition for "A" locations is fierce and landlords are concerned
about one thing: "Are you a solvent, long term tenant who will pay
their rent on time". An organized, professional presentation will
give you the edge you need.
Training Programs &
Manuals
We start by getting to know your
business. What are your food and service goals? What is unique?
What do you want your brand to say? What variables are at play?
Then we tailor a training program with manuals that will achieve
results. No manual can train your staff. Only you and your managers
can, so we focus on programs and
manuals that can be easily taught, validated, and maintained.
Culture
Determining how to care for your
sales generators (ahem...those are your employees) to make them
selling machines, teaching managers how to behave as a unified
force, valuing principle-centered leadership, and "hiring smart"
versus "managing tough"...let us help you with your work
environment. At Blue Orb Restaurant Advisory we understand that you
cannot do it all and we can show you how to create an environment
of trust, execution, and reward to yield long-term results.
War Boards
We can keep you on track through
developing a project calendar - or "War Board" - to tell you what
you should be doing and when you should be doing it. We've opened
too many restaurants to "wing it". We calendar everything from
liquor license application to purchasing office supplies to
training and mock runs.
Maintenance
A quality staff that can "execute"
systems is different from the caliber of employee that is needed to
"develop" those systems, the latter being much more expensive to
keep around. Retaining BORA for ongoing support and accountability
is truly cost effective because we're not on your payroll yet you
get the benefit of 120 years of experience. Weekly, Monthly,
Quarterly, and/or Yearly "tune ups" can keep you running smoothly.
Whether Quarterly menu rollouts, weekly figures meetings, periodic
systems/execution inspections, or scheduled brand evolution, BORA
can help keep you running smoothly.
