Top Restaurant Operator Interviews David...

David Scott Peters
About this episode

This episode of my podcast, The Restaurant Prosperity Formula, launches a segment I call Flip the Table where a restaurant owner takes over the podcast and interviews me. Today’s Flip the Table features a longtime member of mine who is not only a top operator but over the years has coached and consulted with me: David Militello. He owns four different restaurant formats in a tourist town in Michigan. He and I have known each other for 20 years. He was one of the first five members of my mastermind group when I started coaching restaurant owners 21 years ago. He’s been to my workshops, coached with me, consulted with me and just been a great supporter over the years. He is now a Member Mentor in my restaurant owner coaching group. I thought it would be fun if the first Flip the Table was with a restaurant owner who’s known me through a lot of different versions of my coaching and services. He asks me the questions he thinks other restaurant owners would want to know.
