The Dream of Owning A Restaurant

If your dream is to own your own restaurant, the question might be: “Can I make this dream a reality?”

If you have determination, desire, skills, financing, etc., you can make it happen. But you can’t do it alone.

That’s where Eckstut Consulting becomes a part of your dream TEAM. Whether you believe you know the restaurant business, or you know that you don’t know “the BIZ,” I can coach you and lead you to success.

I am well acquainted with what makes a restaurant successful, and I not only guide you through the processes of building your restaurant, but also show you how to sustain it and keep it growing.

I work with experienced owners, restaurant professionals looking to open their own restaurant, and first timers.

Eckstut Consulting works on an hourly basis or, when appropriate, a set fee agreement may be arranged.
