Hey everyone - it has been a while! 

After 7 months of retiring from the food industry and sticking my head first in the NFT industry, I still get A TON of ppl emailing me…

How to start a restaurant, whether XYZ is a good idea, or if the PRO Academy/Foodiepreneur’s Finest would be a good fit for them…

I’ve been thinking deeply recently about how can I still help them even though I’ve stepped away from trade?

Well the answer became clear to me…

I’ve decided to just release both my paid courses: The Profitable Restaurant Academy & Foodiepreneur’s Finest out for FREE on my youtube channel.

hey frens! Just a quick update...

last week my wife and I welcomed a healthy baby boy to our family :)!

for the next little while there won't be any new new videos but clips of some of my most important tips and insights on how to build a great food business. 

as we go into 2022, it is a good time to really think about how you want your 2022 to be like. 

Is it the year that you actually start your food business? Or the year you actually get serious and take your food business to the next level?

as always - my free videos here on youtube are a great starting point

BUT if you're truly serious about your food business, then my mentorship programs with step-by-step guides are available for you. 

whichever route you take...i hope you're ready to kill it in 2022! happy holidays!

hey frens some big news...

my wife is expected to have our second child any time now...

SOOOO you may notice that for the next little while you'll see some old videos make a return! 

They will be on some crucial tips and learnings that you should pay attention to as we all think about 2022. Just because the video may have been shot in 2020 or 2019, it doens't mean the tip about understanding your location or your numbers isn't relevant! 

Cause the most common mistakes and reasons a food business fails is cause the core business foundations are all wonky.  

If you are trying to get a hold of me, just know that my response will most likely be delayed :)

Keep killing it!

It's hard to build a successful restaurant. You have to be an expert in so many different areas, from cooking and managing people, to marketing and accounting…

I know what you're thinking - "There must be some easier way 😢” 

The good news is that there is! 

I’m hosting a free live masterclass that’ll show you the exact formula that I used to build my 7 store ice cream chain and then had it acquired. It is also the same formula other food entrepreneurs are using to build their restaurant and food businesses. This isn't theory; it's all stuff that has worked for us time and again. ​​

👀 Are you wanting to open a restaurant, cafe, boba shop or a storefront food business…but you just don't know how??

The process is confusing and so overwhelming. There's so much to do! And even if you manage to get all the pieces together, there are still too many things that could go wrong. And when things go wrong…that could be easily $20,000 or $50,000 down the drain…

But as always, I’ve got your back 😄!

I’m hosting a free LIVE masterclass on Oct. 26th 5PM PST to share with you my proven 3 step formula on how to build a successful and profitable food business - the same one I used to build my ice cream shop and how others have used to build their restaurant business. 

And at the end of the masterclass, there will be a Q&A segment that you can ask me your burning questions!

Did you know that McDonald’s, Starbucks, Domino’s, and the Shake Shacks of the world use jedi mind powers to get people to buy from them and love them more?

Jedi mind powers like…
Taking out the dollar sign on their menus…
Ending their pricing with 9 or a 5…
Overloading their site with deals so you get tired enough to spend more…
Purposely have 3 sizes so you choose the more expensive one…
Use rewards systems so you buy from them more often…

And many many more mind tricks…that’s you’ve probably fallen for.

The problem is that we aren’t taught these “tricks”. These “tricks” are actually proven psychological frameworks like…
The Cashless Effect
Cognitive Overload
The Decoy Effect 
Occam’s Razor
Or Gamification

The biggest food brands in the world use these frameworks every single day to build their empires. 

And it is us small food businesses who are completely blind to these and having to use other strategies that may not be proven to work. 

That means we have to spend our limited time and money. 

But instead of continuing to leave small food businesses in the dark, I’ve partnered with my friend Michal to create the Food Marketing Labs, a database of 140 psychological frameworks that those giant food brands are using! 

That way you too can come to the dark side (it is all ethical so don’t worry), use the same proven strategies they are for your own food business. 

For just a limited time (until Sept 26th), you can get the Food Marketing Labs database for 25% OFF.
