July 29, 2024Coaching Call with David Melzer: Gratitude, Community & Acting Now for Success
Interview Takeaways:
Prioritizing Gratitude and Community – David Meltzer believes that to build a strong personal or professional brand, especially in hospitality, you should focus on gratitude and community. He suggests writing “thank you” on your mirror to remind yourself daily to appreciate what you have and give. After gratitude, prioritizing community is essential.
Questions to Build Community – Creating supportive communities by using open-ended questions to bring people together, is a tactic that David Meltzer has mastered. He believes a community thrives by giving people more of what they like and taking away what they don’t, and has offered a simple template that anyone can use.
The Value of Doing Things Now – For David Meltzer, focusing on immediate action is paramount to success because emotions, time, and value changes shortly after. Prioritizing action, he says, avoids pitfalls of missed opportunities.

July 22, 2024Streamlining Restaurant Inventory with Data Mapping with Bill Lindsey of COGS-Well
Interview Takeaways:
Food Cost Management with COGS-Well – Bill Lindsey and partners made the significant decision to move their inventory system to a browser-based platform with COGS-Well, which was important in adapting to new technologies to stay relevant and improve business operations.

Streamlining Restaurant Inventory Management – COGS-Well streamlines restaurant inventory setup by using data mapping, or AI, to quickly build an inventory database from invoices, eliminating the need for manual input. This process allows restaurants to set up their inventory in a couple of days and ensures accuracy through a thorough audit process.

The Promise of AI – Bill Lindsey believes the promise of AI lies in its ability to integrate various applications and their data meaningfully, eliminating the need for isolated apps. He finds the development of personal AI compelling, as it can understand individual needs and provide tailored information to enhance job performance, similar to how Steve Jobs anticipated consumer desires.
