Every success has a story of hard work, perseverance, and determination.  

Today I am sharing with you the three top secrets to our restaurant's sales growth.  But before that, let's take a look back at our humble beginnings.  

Five years ago, my husband and I quit our job as engineers. We moved from New Mexico to San Antonio, Texas, in pursuit of an American Dream! We wanted to be in business and work together as a team. Since we loved having people over and served them delicious home-cooked foods, we thought of opening a restaurant. We believed that starting a restaurant would fuse our passion for food and our desire to have our very own business! We sold our house in New Mexico and bought a dying Pizzeria in San Antonio.  It was hundreds of thousands of dollars BELOW breakeven.  We had 0 prior experience in the restaurant business, and at the time, our two kids were very young. Luke was 2 and a half years old, while Mark was only 7 months. In that first year of operations, I think we worked 100+ hours a week and only collected $25k - $30K in profits for the whole year.  But we got very aggressive in boosting our sales after that initial year. We never stopped thinking and doing things that would generate sales for our restaurant business. And lo and behold, we OVER tripled our sales in the last five years.  We also opened our 2nd location last year, and we had our 3rd baby, who is now 2!   

We are engaged owners, but we do NOT work in the operations. Thanks to systems, automation, and leadership development. We collectively work around 10 hours a week, meeting with our managers, and collect 6 figures in profits. So how did we do it? That's a secret you need to discover! Listen to the podcast to find out our three top secrets to our sales growth!
