Kurtis Bosley owns and runs CBK Hospitality Solutions, a stunning Instagram page @cocktailsbykurtis and now a bar / eatery at Dee Why Beach. Prior to all that, he helped open five venues and led the drinks program at Public House Management Group as their Group Bars Manager, so he’s had more than his fair share of valuable experiences in the industry.

Kurtis takes us through the learnings that have come with opening his first venue, what that venue is going to look like and his top social media advice for anyone looking to create a presence on Instagram.

And the insights don’t stop there – our Free Pour segment that follows is an in-studio interview with Proof & Company’s Charlie Ainsbury. Charlie holds the perfectly-named position of ‘Spirits Evangelist’ at Proof & Co and is an extremely well-regarded bartender both in Australia and internationally.
