The Kitchen Audit

72 Hours to Find the Leak. For the owner who is tired of being the most expensive line cook in the building.

The Overview: High turnover, systemic waste, and a chaotic kitchen that keeps you on the line 70 hours a week is not a business, it’s a hostage situation. If you’re stuck on the line, you aren't leading; you’re just surviving. I don't look at your spreadsheets to find out why you're bleeding money; I walk your floor.

The Intervention:

• 3 Days of "Ghosting": I embed myself in your operation. I watch the tickets, I watch the prep, and I listen to the cross-talk your staff hides from you.

• The Leak Detection: I find the $1,000/month you’re losing in waste and the exact cultural friction that is making your best server look for a new job.

• The "Line-Out" Debrief: A no-filter report on the structural rot. I tell you who is carrying the weight, who is dead weight, and where the system is failing the people.

The Outcome: You get a surgical roadmap to get off the line and back into the owner's chair. I find the friction; you save the flow.

The Objective: Boots-on-the-ground inspection to stop the bleeding.

• Duration: 3 Days.

• The Intent: This is for the owner who knows they are losing ground but can't see why. I’m not here to coach you through a zoom screen. I'm coming to your site to witness the operation in real-time. I find the leaks; you get the truth.

• The Work:

• Day 1: The Systems Inspection. I watch the workflow. I find the "double-work," the manual bottlenecks, and the communication breakdowns that are burning your team's time.

• Day 2: The Money Leak Audit. I look at the inventory, the service list, and the "ghost expenses." I find where you’re paying for things you don't use and where you’re undercharging for things you do.

• Day 3: The Marketing & Messaging Check. I look at how you’re talking to the street. If your message is confusing or dated, you’re paying for leads that will never convert.

• The Deliverable: The Witness This "Red Flag" Report. A blunt, high-precision list of the top 5 things costing you money today and the immediate steps to kill them.

• Ideal For: The Small Business Owner (under 10 years) who is exhausted and losing peace of mind. You feel like you’re running in sand. You need an outside eye to tell you exactly what to stop doing so you can breathe again.

The Objective: Stop Building Skyscrapers on Swamps.

The Reality Check You’re being told you need a sophisticated tech stack, "growth hacks," and a scalability plan. But adding complexity to a broken foundation doesn’t lead to growth, it leads to a crash.

You’ve noticed the shift. You aren't getting the level of clients you once did, and the old tricks aren't working. Deep down, you know the truth: If this trajectory doesn't change, the doors won't stay open. Before you spend another dollar trying to "scale" the chaos, you have to master the human flow and find the solid ground.

The 3-Day Intervention:

• The Complexity Strip-Down: We audit your current "solutions"—the apps, the extra steps, and the bloated processes—to find which ones are actually hiding the truth of your decline.

• Human-Flow Analysis: I observe how your vision moves from your head to your staff’s hands. If there is friction at the street level, your clients feel it, and they are voting with their wallets.

• The "Grounding" Report: A surgical directive on exactly what to simplify, what to cut, and what must be mastered immediately to stop the bleed.

The Outcome: Stop Managing Tech. Start Managing the Truth. We drain the swamp and find the solid ground so your business can actually support the weight of your ambition. You stop gliding toward a shutdown and start standing on a foundation that can actually hold a future.

 Ideal For: The owner who is successful on paper but losing market share in reality. You see the writing on the wall, and you're ready for the unvarnished truth before it’s too late.
