And doing that with blistering consistency.

We all do a couple of these a year, right?
Farmer's Markets... Street Fairs... some Charity Event for the local school.
The goal of these is not to sell food.
The only thing that matters is growing your email list.
This is how to CRUSH it.

One of the most expensive departments in any restaurant is reception. You have hosts, reservationists, cashiers... all making $20-30 per hour. And people do one of two things...
1) They cut cut cut to save payroll... but then the guest experience suffers.
2) They overstaff to get proper coverage... but then struggle with profitability.
Loman AI has created a compelling solution... an AI phone answering service that guests actually enjoy talking to. Now your staff can focus on the guests right in front of them. Not only is it helping operators save on payroll... but their case studies are showing that the system is actually generating a revenue lift. Across the board in FSR concepts, as well as QSR concepts.

AI is all anyone can talk about these days.
But most of the restaurant owners I talk to feel woefully behind.
They know they should spend time learning the platforms, but they simply don't have the time.
If that sounds like you, then this episode is for you. I am joined by P3 Coach, Rev Ciancio, to talk about about how to get started with LLMs like Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT to market your restaurant in the year 2026 and beyond. Simple actionable advice you can use TODAY to make your restaurant better.

This might be the most important episode we've ever put out.
Why?
Because we're talking about THE ONE THING. Profit is the only thing that matters in your business. Not revenue, not followers, not employee retention. PROFIT. Are you generating a consistent, predictable return?
On this epic, hourlong episode we cover:
The 30/30/20 Rule
The Four Numbers you need to know for your business
The key to a "profit first" mentality
The only way to actually measure COGS
The best way to get Labor % under control
The Prime Cost Benchmark to chisel in stone
A clear path forward
The systems you need to scale
A way to connect with me and my team

Human beings are storytellers. It's how we make sense of the world around us, give meaning to the things we experience. Today I want to switch gears from the guest experience to staff engagement.
