Overview of services

About A2Z Restaurant Consulting: we’ve been helping new and existing restaurants since 2009, powered by our decades in the restaurant industry.

Launching a new restaurant is a big undertaking, and sustaining it profitably is more so. So we tell you what you NEED to hear, not just what you want to hear — a yes man won’t help your restaurant a success. Our services include step-by-step progressions, plus collaboration with technology and marketing experts, and further business consulting.

Start-Up

We plan, strategize, research, and implement every step of the process from concept profitability evaluation to brand identity to Planning, set-up, branding, best practice training & systems, to promotion and launch.

Increase Profitability

Our process includes but is not limited to, in-depth analysis and evaluation of the brand concept, location, competition operations, and marketing strategy, and then a cost-profit evaluation of vendors and retail pricing.

Turn-Around

Our turnaround consulting employs most of the same things as our Increase Profitability but may require a complete rebranding of the concept, the menu, the services (such as events, catering, delivery), and vendor deals.

Brand Identity

The logo should be simple, memorable, and instantly recognizable, and translate well on signage, menus, flyers, and even interior design. That content and image are promoted across ads, social media, and the website.

Special Promotions

We’ve developed pop-up restaurants and food trucks for big brands (Amazon Prime) and food stands on city properties, to special events at local restaurants and bars, designing and planning atands for tradeshows.

As a first time restaurateur i cannot recommend A2Z enough, it was very hard to justify hiring a consultant on top of all the other costs associated with starting a restaurant and very quickly it was substantiated and was best money spent, the value and expertise and genuine care Eddie provided probably can’t be quantified when we’re talking getting proper success coaching and guidance on hundreds of crucial decisions from menu, logo, sign, kitchen design, interior, marketing, promotion, contractor network and so much more, what i have to commend the most is responsiveness and availability, Eddie was and still is always there for me a call or text away weather i needed a plumber or electrician or opinion on menu. Plan to continue working with A2Z as it’s like my success coach.

Eddie has a fabulous team, and helped me save time and money from the beginning, with construction, to hiring and training staff, and getting us ready to open. They have next level expertise in all phases including tech, which I am seriously deficient in. They have my highest recommendation, and I will surely hire them again on my next restaurant opening.
