Too many bar owners don’t take documentation seriously until it’s too late.
They assume verbal instructions, digital trails, or “just remembering” is enough to protect them. It’s not.
In this episode, we break down the real reason why lack of documentation quietly leaves your business exposed to lawsuits, fines, and insurance nightmares.
You’ll get the 5 must-have document types that every bar should be storing from training logs to incident reports to vendor contracts and how to organize them in a way that actually protects your ass.
Plus, we’ll walk you through how to set up a low-effort physical and digital system that works even if you hate paperwork.
If you’ve ever found yourself scrambling for proof after something went wrong, this episode will show you how to never be unprepared again.
What You’ll Learn
🌟 The five documents every bar owner should have ready at all times
🌟 The hidden legal time bombs inside sloppy or missing reports
🌟 How to build your “CYA cabinet” the right way
🌟 A simple hybrid filing system that protects your ass without killing your time
🌟 The one document that matters most when someone threatens legal action
🌟 How to train your managers to document things properly every single time
