For 20 years, I was a member of my state restaurant association and for two terms I served on its Board of Directors. This was a wise decision as I turned to their expertise numerous times over the years on challenging issues affecting my business and I was able to mentor and assist other restaurateurs in improving their businesses.
For a small yearly investment, your State Restaurant Association can save you thousands through their influence and buying power with industry suppliers, not to mention their muscle at the Statehouse defending your restaurant from negative legislation. Have a roadblock or challenge in your restaurant, call your state association and I’m confident they can answer immediately or point you in the right direction.
Watch or listen to my latest interview with the Chief Executive of the New Mexico Restaurant Association for her unique perspective on this industry.
Thanks for watching + listening and I’ll see you next time!
