Planning next year for your bar usually happens in between shifts, on scraps of paper, and without real numbers.
You look at last year’s sales, talk about cutting labor or pushing promos, and still end up guessing why the profit is not where you want it.
In this episode, we walk through a complete 2026 planning session using five simple metrics from your bar so you can finally see what is really working and what is not.
You will hear how to turn those numbers into three clear annual goals and a quarter by quarter roadmap that actually fits around real service, real staff, and real life.
By the end, you will know exactly what to focus on each month to grow profit, protect your time, and stop feeling like you are starting from zero every January.
