Who the Hell am I?
Hello, I am Dave Allred, your humble host and instructor for Restaurant Start-Up Secrets. I’ve been in bar & restaurant industry for 30+ years and worked as a server, bartender, manager and consultant. In 2011 I started my own business called Bar Patrol which helps owners and managers manage their inventory & ordering, saving them $1,000’s per month. In addition, I just started my 2nd business called Order Patrol which allows guests to order and pay directly from their table so they don’t have to wait for their server. The point to all this? I’ve been in the bar & restaurant trenches for years and I also know how to start and run businesses. I love helping owners and managers succeed, which is why I created this course for you.
