Hospitality Advisory Services
Stop Making Critical Business Decisions Alone - Get Expert Hospitality Guidance That Drives Profitable Growth
Strategic advisory services that solve the real challenges facing restaurant, bar, and hotel owners in today's competitive market.
The Costly Mistakes Hospitality Owners Make in Isolation
Running a hospitality business can feel isolating, especially when facing critical decisions that could make or break your operation. Without expert guidance, even experienced owners fall into costly traps: accepting poor profitability as "normal," tolerating operational inefficiencies that bleed money, and operating without the internal controls needed to protect against fraud and waste.
The result? Restaurants, bars, and hotels that should be thriving instead struggle with thin margins, operational chaos, and vulnerability to internal theft that can destroy years of hard work.
You don't have to navigate these challenges alone.
Hospitality-Specific Internal Audits and Operational Reviews
We conduct comprehensive internal audits designed specifically for restaurants, bars, and hotels. Our operational reviews identify revenue leaks, control weaknesses, and efficiency opportunities that generic auditors miss. These targeted assessments have consistently returned over 3% of revenue to hospitality owners.
Forensic Audits and Fraud Investigation
When you suspect internal theft or need to investigate financial irregularities, we provide specialized hospitality forensic audits. Our proven investigative techniques and industry knowledge help uncover fraud schemes specific to restaurants, bars, and hotels while implementing controls to prevent future losses.
Menu Engineering and Pricing Optimization
Your menu is your profit engine, but most owners guess at pricing. We analyze every item's true profitability, eliminate profit-draining dishes, optimize high-margin offerings, and engineer menus that boost both customer satisfaction and your bottom line.
Process Improvements and S.O.P. Reviews
Inefficient processes don't just waste money—they exhaust your team and frustrate guests. We review and update your Standard Operating Procedures, streamline workflows, identify ways to reduce turnover and expenses, and uncover hidden revenue opportunities that create systems working consistently, even when you're not there.
Bar and Restaurant Design Assistance
Layout and design directly impact efficiency and profitability. We provide design guidance that optimizes workflow, maximizes revenue per square foot, and creates guest experiences that drive repeat business while reducing operational costs.
