Micah Goldfarb is the owner of Greespot Salad Company and a member of the P3 Mastermind. Over the course of the last 6 months I've had the pleasure of watching him put so many of our systems and frameworks into place to turn his restaurant around. Well, one of them. His journey has been bittersweet... because he learned through his being in the program that there was no way to save his other underperforming store.

Neil Rogers is a bartender turned marketing executive who credits much of his success to the skills he learned behind the bar. But here's the thing: I don't think a lot of our servers and bartenders really know these things. There's a thing or two we can teach them... and a thing or two Neil can teach us. 
I learned a ton throughout this conversation and I think there are several takeaways. Enjoy!
