Every restaurant in North America has had their world turned upside down since the beginning of the pandemic. It has been especially difficult for Independent Restaurants to survive, restart, and compete with the large corporate chains that have much deeper pockets and benefited from the majority share of financial government assistance.
Customer habits, safety protocols, supply chain issues, rising food and labor costs – not to mention the lack of qualified staff – continue to challenge Independent Restaurant Owners in today’s environment. It’s no wonder that each year approximately 32% of independent restaurants are forced to close their doors.
At BIRA, it’s our mission is to ensure that Independent Restaurant Owners have the latest information and access to the tools necessary to compete with the National Chains. To aid in recovery from the pandemic, attract more new customers, increase sales, and operate their restaurants more efficiently to maximize their profits. That’s why we are sponsoring the powerful FREE Live Restaurant Success Roadshow in 2022.

SPECIAL GUEST SPEAKER
“How To Fully Staff Your Restaurant In 30 Days Or Less”
We are in the biggest labor shortage the restaurant industry has ever seen! Over 1.8 million job openings. The fact of the matter is…while you didn’t create the labor shortage, you have to deal with it, or you and your restaurant won’t survive.
We don’t want this to happen to you! We’ve seen too many restaurants close their doors because they don’t have enough staff.
That’s why we brought in restaurant staffing expert Michael Thibault. He is going to show you EXACTLY how he has helped the nation’s top Independent Restaurants beat the national chains to finding, attracting, and hiring a superstar staff for their restaurants. Even in this market. In under 30 days.
Some of the strategies Mr. Thibault will share during his presentation:
- What’s working right now to find, interview, and hire top-notch staff for your restaurant TODAY.
- What you can do to stand out from every other restaurant that is looking for staff.
- Why Indeed, Ziprecruiter, Hotjobs, and ALL listing sites are stealing your money and ARE NOT your best option for staffing.
- How to find employees that are pre-qualified to work and actually show up for the interview.
- The “1” thing that works better than anything else, (and it’s FREE) to finding and hiring applicants.
- How you can implement an auto-pilot system that you can turn on and off to hiring the best staff in your area.
- And much more…
