About the show

Back-office is where the units are won or lost.

The premise

Multi-unit operators have a problem that podcasts don’t talk about: by the time you’re past 10 stores, the interesting questions stop being about your product and start being about your back-office. Reporting, payroll, opening checklists, district structure, the dashboards your DMs check on Monday morning.

We started this show because the operators figuring this out are trading tactics in DMs and dinners — not from a stage. We bring them on, ask the specific questions, and ship a downloadable so you can use what they built.

The format
  1. 01
    One guest
    An operator, CFO, or back-office leader from a 10-100 unit business.
  2. 02
    40 minutes
    Enough for substance, short enough for a commute.
  3. 03
    Three takeaways
    Always specific. Always something you could run Monday.
  4. 04
    One artifact
    A PDF checklist, an XLSX scorecard, or an SOP — built from what the guest actually uses.
Who it’s for

Multi-unit operators between 10 and 100 locations — across food, auto repair, car wash, retail, fitness, services. CFOs, COOs, VPs of Ops, franchise area developers, and the back-office leaders who actually run the day-to-day systems behind the brand.
