Even the best batters fail nearly 70% of the time, but in your restaurant a fantastic .333 BA spells failure. There are many sources available to plan for the coming months.
Past experience is a good source for the basics, but in these rapidly changing times the smart operator looks to other available sources to plan their future. Our panel features two of those sources of info that can and should be tapped .
Join the 24’s Hits, Misses and a Look Into the Crystal Ball on Tuesday November 26th @ 9:00 Eastern.
