Arlington, VA – How Restaurants Benefit from Strategic Planning Coaching Service

Owning a restaurant requires strategic capability: restaurant owners must effectively implement employee retention tactics, achieve daily goals, and adapt marketing and services to constant shifts in consumer demand. Implementing these practices takes planning and a strategic approach – which many busy restaurant owners do not have.

If you’re a restaurant owner and need assistance developing a strategic plan to pursue goals of development, organization, and growth, I am available to assist you step-by-step. Having professional experience and certification in management in complex organizations and environments, I emphasize the importance of strategy to my clients.

Why Restaurants Should Use Strategic Planning

A successful strategic plan gives business owners a structured approach to accomplishing significant business goals: a strategic plan provides precise directions and includes resources for your company to pursue further development, higher sales, productivity improvement, and more with cost-effectiveness, efficiency, and timeliness.

Strategic planning may initially seem time-consuming – but with a business coach, it is carried out step-by-step in a productive and efficient process. Instead, by working with a business coach, restaurant owners see strategic planning as engaging and enlightening.

Get Valuable Insight Into Your Progress

Strategic planning involves assessing your successes and challenges to create purposeful goals. During strategic planning, you’ll get valuable insight into critical business questions such as:

• Is your restaurant still operating according to your vision, mission, and purpose in your business plan?
• Where have you excelled in your restaurant?
• What shifts in the food industry have benefited and challenged your restaurant?
• What potential growth or improvement areas were unsuccessful in the previous year and why?
• Where have you missed opportunities to engage your market or to gain new customers, and why?

Improve Your Restaurant Using Strategy

Business owners accomplish more essential goals within a specific timeframe by creating a strategic plan. With a strategy, you have a clear view of the action needed to improve specific areas of your restaurant, the results you seek from those improvements, and the resources to make those improvements.

Whether you have goals to develop your branding and marketing, implement expense reduction, improve team performance, or create a daily business activity schedule to reach daily goals – a strategic plan gets you the results.

The Planning Process

• I conduct a SWOT analysis: we will identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to create purposeful goals and objectives conducive to goal achievement.
• I use financial assessments to determine your restaurant’s position in the market compared to the benchmark and top 10 percent of the food industry. Then, we will create purposeful financial goals.
• I help you create action plans for the execution of objectives.
• We will communicate the strategic plan to your team to define the roles of your staff and their responsibilities and schedule check-ins for timeliness and efficiency.
