Hello phở restaurant operator:

This month, it's all about staying out of trouble. Here's what I mean. Running a pho restaurant is not easy, but it does not have to be hard either. Two key things will help you stay out of trouble:

Know your business inside out, and
Develop a rock solid habit to solve any problem that comes along.

If you don't understand your business in detail, how will you catch what went wrong and fix them? If you can't recognize the symptoms of trouble that loom ahead, how will you stand a chance to fix or even prevent it in the future? The reality is: You need to know before you can prevent or take corrective action. Who wants to be in emergency mode all the time right?

As always, send me a note if you need any help with making you pho restaurant more successful.

As I help pho restaurateurs improving performance of their businesses, there's always a few common threads among those pho restaurants that are in trouble of making it. If I have to boil it down to a few words, it'd be this: "Understand what your customer is unhappy about your pho restaurant, then fix it fast."

Here are the 5 toughest challenges a typical pho restaurant faces. If fixed, they will give the best payback potentials for a pho restaurant owner.

I was recently contacted by a restaurateur to help her pho restaurant. Without taking immediate action to improve business, this pho restaurant will have to close because revenues are not enough to cover expenses.

All the signs are there. Quite clear actually. Even casual observers can probably see what's wrong with this pho restaurant. I dug a little deeper and what I found is not that uncommon.
