In this episode Chip walks you through a simple framework he teaches to all of his clients: Popcorn Pricing.

You should be raising prices on your menu every single month. But not on every dish... just a handful of dishes. By understanding the real time plate costs of what you serve you can use pricing as a tool to maintain profitability. Every month, you should be increasing the prices of 5-10% of your items.

Busy Isn’t the Same as Productive

In this episode Chip walks you through a simple framework for how you can get out of the day-to-day and start being the CEO your restaurant needs. Ultimately there is only one way to tell if your brand is ready to grow: You need to take a 90-day sabbatical. Step away and let the team in place handle everything! Sounds crazy, right? But it's the only way. If you want to work up to it, trying getting off the grid 1 day a week for the next 3 months. By the end you'll be ready for your 90-day sabbatical.

Be predictably calm. Chaos happens. Great leaders don’t add to it—they absorb it and steady the room.

Set the standard in public, correct in private. Praise loudly, coach quietly. Your culture listens to how you handle both.

Decide faster than you feel ready. Indecision is more exhausting to a team than a wrong call that gets corrected.

Say “thank you” more than you think you should. Effort noticed is effort repeated—especially in a high-stress environment.

Coach the why, not just the what. People don’t commit to tasks; they commit to purpose.

Protect your best people from burnout. The schedule is a leadership tool, not just a staffing solution.

Own the misses—out loud. Accountability from the top gives everyone else permission to improve.

Work on the business in front of your team. When they see you planning, training, and improving—not just firefighting—they follow suit.

The Scarcity Mindset says that there's so much much to go around. One single pie with only so many pieces.

The Abundance Mindset says that if you have the recipe, you can just bake more pies. There's always more than enough to go around. 

In the year ahead I want you to change your thinking to change your life.
