How do smart restaurant owners start the year by strengthening their business? In this episode, we talk about why January is a natural moment to step back and evaluate how a restaurant is really operating. We explore how reviewing financials, questioning assumptions, and looking closely at costs can help owners build a healthier business, whether or not a sale is coming soon.

We discuss the financial habits that tend to show up in stronger operations, including cleaner books, clearer separation between personal and business expenses, and reviewing numbers across different time frames. We also share a few reflections from our own experience as operators, including the parts of running a restaurant that consistently created the most pressure.
