Presented by David Scott Peters, Restaurant Coach
Sunday, August 23, 9;00am to 5:00pm (1.5 hour break for lunch)
Independent restaurant operators don’t fail because they lack passion—they fail because they lack systems.
In this high-impact session, restaurant systems expert David Scott Peters breaks down the exact framework he’s used for over two decades to help independent restaurant pros take control of their operations, increase profitability, and finally create a business that doesn’t depend on them being there 24/7.
Built from the core principles of his Restaurant Prosperity Formula, this session distills the most powerful strategies from his full two-day seminar into a focused, actionable roadmap.
Attendees will learn how to:
- Take control of their numbers using a simple, proven budgeting system that drives profitability
- Master prime cost (the #1 key to financial success) and understand exactly where their money is going
- Implement critical systems like checklists, inventory controls, and purchasing systems that eliminate chaos and guesswork
- Reduce food and labor costs without sacrificing quality or guest experience
- Build a culture of accountability where managers take ownership and execute consistently
- Create a restaurant that runs on systems, not stress
This session goes beyond theory. David introduces real-world tools like the Restaurant Checkbook Guardian, Key Item Tracker, Waste Tracker, and Restaurant Payroll Guardian—giving attendees practical ways to immediately impact their bottom line.
Because the truth is simple:
If you don’t control your systems, your restaurant controls you.
Walk away with a clear understanding of how to move from reactive firefighting to proactive leadership—and start building a restaurant that delivers both financial freedom and quality of life.
Who Should Attend:
- Independent restaurant owners and operators
- General managers and management teams responsible for financial performance
- Restaurant pros struggling with rising costs, shrinking margins, or inconsistent results
- Operators who feel stuck working in their business instead of leading it
- Anyone ready to implement real systems and finally take control of their restaurant
