Founding members — 5 seats at the pass

Founding members.
5 spots available.

A community. A course. Six weeks of direct access to me. Weekly calls, real accountability, and the system that took two restaurants to the top of their market.

Five seats. When they're gone, that's it.

What founding members get

More than a community.
A seat at the table.

Founding members don't just get the course — they get me. Every week. For six weeks.

Weekly live sessions

Six weeks. Six calls. Bring your real problems — your team, your floor, your ranking. We work through it live.

More consulting than course

You're not a student. You're a collaborator. What you struggle with shapes what gets built.

Lifetime community access

Once you're in, the door never closes. Every future resource, conversation, and cohort included.

The full system

All five layers — Foundations, Experience Design, Review Capture, Algorithm Leverage, Flywheel Acceleration. Built for the floor, not the classroom.

The lowest price, locked in

$197. Public launch is $497. Your rate is locked the moment you join. It never goes up.

Your results become the proof

Founding members are the first case studies. Your journey becomes part of what this brand is built on.

$197 now.
$497 when the doors open publicly.

The price isn't about the money. It's about accountability. Skin in the game means you show up, you implement, and you get results. That's the only reason it exists.

Public launch price

$497

After the founding cohort closes, this is the price.

Who this is for

This was built for
a specific kind of leader.

Five seats. I need the right five people in them. Be honest with yourself before you claim one.

This is for you if

You're an owner, GM, or AGM who takes your restaurant's reputation seriously.

Your restaurant is in a tourist destination or a meaningful percentage of your guests are visiting the area.

You're currently ranked outside the top 10 and you know there's ground to make up.

You feel unconfident about your online reputation and want a clear system to fix it.

You're ambitious — you want to build a great team, a great culture, and a restaurant people talk about.

You're willing to implement, not just consume. Results require action.

This isn't for you if

You're looking for a quick fix or a shortcut. This is a culture system, not a hack.

You want to learn but not implement. The system only works if you do.

You're not open to feedback or changing how things are done on your floor.

You already rank in the top 5 in your market and aren't looking to grow further.

You're not willing to share your results. Founding members help build the proof.

I've done this.
Twice. In the same town.

I built this system inside a 40-year-old Mediterranean restaurant in Banff that the industry had written off. Ten months later it was #1 in Banff and top 1% worldwide on TripAdvisor. I then ran the same system at a high-volume distillery twice the size. Same result.

I'm not teaching something I read about. I built it on the floor, under pressure, with real teams.
