Use Case:
Because we listen first. We build custom solutions, not copy-paste playbooks. And we respect the hell out of the people who are still in the trenches, running real service for real guests.
If we’re not the right fit, we’ll tell you. But if we are? We’ll build something that makes your bar better, your team stronger, and your bottom line smarter.
Chris has been our consultant at Rookies Sports Lodge for over two years—and we call him Coach for a reason. He’s had a major impact on our business, helping us organize structure, set goals, and build a strong foundation.
Each week, he guides us through challenges with clear tools and practical advice. Most importantly, he listens—making us feel supported, less stressed, and more focused after every meeting.
He’s our rock and our secret weapon. We’re lucky to have him.
