Joe Johnston has been building highly successful restaurants for more than twenty years. After co-founding and later selling a chain of coffee shops in Arizona called The Coffee Plantation, Joe has helped build three incredibly popular restaurants in Gilbert, AZ. He and his partners build institutions – restaurants that are profitable on their own without the need to expand, and that will be around for many years to come. Joe has a proven track record of success, and has figured out how to mitigate most of the risks that come along with opening restaurants. Here are some of the highlights of Joe’s interview for Restaurant Owners Uncorked…
– Restaurants don’t have to be risky
– Be known for something
– KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid)
– Freedom comes from interdependence, not independence
– Partnerships are like marriages
– Hire people who are passionate about food and people
