We’ve all been there. The kitchen is hot. The slide check is full of tickets. The servers are waiting. Working in a restaurant is hard. It’s like spinning plates. Almost literally sometimes. To run one successfully, you need support, and a lot of it. You need someone who has been there before and can share knowledge, technological prowess and ongoing support to keep your sanity while you’re doing $50,000 weekends.
Big Whiskey’s is proud to provide support to our franchisees in every area of running a restaurant. We have the background, the systems, the tech and the plan to make owning a Big Whiskey’s one of the most profitable franchises in 2022. We’re gonna give you a peek behind the curtain here. These are 8 ways we provide indefinite support to our franchisees.
COMPLETE TRAINING
Comprehensive training, seated and hands-on, is held at both a corporate location and on-site at your restaurant to ensure you and your staff are fully ready before your grand opening. You will continue to receive support throughout the opening and will be assigned a New Store Coordinator, a corporate trainer who aids in tying up loose ends to make certain your store meets our high quality standards before guests enter the building.
SYSTEMS SUPPORT
We are continually improving upon our systems to help you keep your inventory, COGS and labor in check, easily manage online orders, provide you with full training resources, operations support and much more.
STRONG SUPPLIER PARTNERSHIPS
In our fifteen years, we’ve built lock-step relationships with our national account. You’ll have access to our key suppliers, like USFoods and Coca Cola, with excellent negotiated pricing and terms for key products and supplies. What would this mean for you? You buy direct from our suppliers at Big Whiskey’s national account pricing with no mark additional up.
PURCHASING & SUPPLIER ASSISTANCE
Big Whiskey’s will ensure that you are set up for success from day one with our suppliers, including assisting with your initial orders and deliveries. We are in constant communication with our suppliers on subs, cost increases and better products. Our franchise liaison handles this on a daily basis.
CONFIDENTIAL OPERATIONS MANUAL
You will receive a copy of our detailed reference guide including signature recipes, kitchen prep step-by-step instructions, quality control guidelines, job descriptions and much more.
ONGOING TRAINING & FIELD SUPPORT
Our Director of Franchise Operations will provide continual training, support and guidance both on-site and remotely. With detailed and consistent unit reviews you can feel confident that your store is operating to its fullest potential and providing your guests a great experience.
MARKETING GUIDANCE
Our dedicated team of marketing professionals will guide you through a grand opening marketing campaign, your grand opening event and will provide ongoing support, guidance and expertise. Additionally, your team will have access to a library of brand materials for easy execution in your market.
TECHNOLOGY
We have spent years researching and implementing industry leading technologies into our operations. You can be assured that our systems will help secure your bottom line, assist you with marketing and will leave you with little room for error.
