  • How Jolt Checklists and Software Create Accountability in Restaurants
    Jun 25 2025

    When restaurant owners dream of freedom from the grind — financial, operational and emotional — what they really need is a system. In episode 127 of the “Restaurant Prosperity Formula Podcast,” I sat down with CJ Lewis, co-founder and COO of Jolt, a restaurant operations platform that has redefined how accountability, food safety and systems should work in the real world. If you’ve ever struggled to get your team to follow checklists, keep temps in line or stay consistent without you breathing down their neck, this episode is for you. Lewis shares how Jolt was born out of frustration — and a $10,000 ice cream meltdown — and how it’s evolved into a must-have for restaurant operators serious about success.

  • How to Get Your Restaurant Guests to Come Back Again and Again
    May 28 2025

    Let’s be real — this industry is tough. In today’s podcast episode of The Restaurant Prosperity Formula, I dive deep into one of the most make-or-break elements of restaurant success: the guest experience. With fewer guests walking through the door and competition tighter than ever, delivering a memorable visit isn’t optional — it’s survival. Episode 125 is a masterclass in creating experiences so remarkable your guests can’t wait to come back. I explore what truly defines hospitality, why vague standards are your silent killer, and how lazy hiring — not “this generation” — is often the real problem. Whether you’re struggling to retain staff or haunted by bad Yelp reviews, this episode is your roadmap to turning things around.
