Many operators find themselves stuck in the weeds when it comes to expansion but having the right systems in place unlocks growth. Think it’s impossible to move away from your operations for extended periods of time or you always must be available? Ray Villaman did just that moving to Spain for a year, while running five award-winning concepts with over $20 million in annual revenue. He’s learned to essentially duplicate himself with his 40+ managers so he isn’t tied down to his business. This lesson came with the experience of being involved in more than 150 restaurant openings throughout his career. Most recently, one of his concepts was named #4 pizzeria in the country by USA Today and their operations have over 3,000 online reviews with a score over 4.5+. This session inspires you to focus on leveraging your resources instead of breaking your back and getting more time in your schedule to reach your ultimate potential.
