Spike TV has a new reality TV show called Bar Rescue. Bar Consultant Jon Taffer and his team take over bars on the verge of bankruptcy and turn them around. In addition to remodeling the bar, he gets the management and staff on the right track to running a successful bar. He covers everything such as managing your pour cost, menu engineering, up-selling, even why proper uniforms are important. Of course, like any good reality TV show, Bar Rescue is built around the drama that comes from running a bar.
Check out this clip below. John talks about the perfect one-ounce pour, the power of suggestion, bar menu engineering, and why selling fruit drinks helps promote food sales.
