About this episode

My guest for this episode of The Restaurant Prosperity Formula is Avery Ward, CEO of Little Italy Pizza in Ohio and a mentor in my coaching program for restaurant owners. Our discussion highlights Ward's journey from working directly in his restaurant to leading a thriving multi-unit business with a team of 80 employees. He shares key insights into leadership, building a strong management team and using tools like video to drive business growth. Ward also discusses his role as a mentor, where he helps other restaurant owners implement proven systems and navigate challenges to achieve success. The episode showcases how Ward applied the principles of the Restaurant Prosperity Formula to transform his business and his life, offering inspiration and practical advice for restaurateurs looking to do the same.
