The Future of Restaurant Finance Technology
Restaurant technology moves fast, but choosing the wrong platform can cost as much as hiring a bad employee. Rich Sweeney (Lead Solutions Engineer) and Marc Cohen (Solutions Architect) from Restaurant 365 join Nick Stauff to discuss how restaurant operators can leverage technology to control costs and scale efficiently.
Rich and Marc reveal why financial transparency and operational data must work together from day one. They share real client stories, from single-unit operators cutting food costs by 19 points to multi-location chains growing from 3 to 400+ restaurants using the same accounting team size.
The conversation tackles integration challenges, security concerns, and why AI won't replace restaurant professionals but will make them more efficient. Rich emphasizes that "everything, operationally speaking, has an accounting cost," while Marc explains how proper implementation delivers immediate ROI through better cost visibility. Listen to discover their specific strategies for avoiding costly technology mistakes.
