Improve Profitability & Streamline Operations
The Challenge
Jose Valdez, a 10-year veteran in the restaurant business, was generating strong top-line revenue ($2.5M across 4 Dallas-area locations) but wasn’t seeing the profits to match. Each location operated with its own playbook, overhead was creeping up, and Jose was constantly pulled into day-to-day operations — leaving little time for strategy or growth.
The Coaching Approach
Over 9 months, we worked on building profitability from the inside out. Coaching focused on simplifying operations, creating financial visibility, and empowering local managers to lead more effectively. We introduced profit-first thinking, team scoreboards, and cost discipline across all locations.

Customer Reviews of the Case
“I knew the sales were there, but I couldn’t figure out why the profits weren’t. Sekar helped me bring discipline, structure, and the systems I was missing. We’re finally running like a real company — and I have my time back.”
