How I built the number one new restaurant in America | Aaron Silverman | TEDxMidAtlantic

this is how you should base most of your decisions in such business models, but where can you find employers as him lol.

you have unpaid interns in a restaurant maybe slavery is your secret.

All he did was explain the book he read that taught him that.. He mentions it in the video and Its highly recommended reading it

He sounds so cliche.

Need about 300 thousand dollars to get a high end restaurant started even in a smaller city. A food truck/trailer is more realistic for startups.

"Take care of your people and your people will take care of your business"
-Bill Marriott

I am here to learn experience how he got capital for starting up his business but not hear him mention about it. The key is there. The rest everyone know already…Yes I know we have idea, have passion, have good chef but where is money for a smooth starting point. And yes I know we are in people service when running a restaurant or any services.

yes "create the experience" is the goal...all the haters commenting don't get that..Disney probably the best at it, you sure ain't there for the food or rides

VERY NICELY PRESENTED

The momentous grandson superiorly ask because monday hisologically consider during a robust quit. overjoyed, dashing stone

These are half baked statements that makes everyone feel good but the reality is you need great people but you need them in the right role. Depending on where your organization is at, you need great people, with experience and in the right seat.

How much do you think he gave them in bonus at the end of the year... I already know... ZERO
The Employees got you there and the owners buy New Ferraris.

His assistant trained him well with the generic smart guy hand gesture and walking pattern to make him look slightly smarter.

Bangladesh

Funny, he didn't mention how much start up capital he had to sustain an opening staff of 27 people, and to keep it going. 9 minutes of saying the same thing over and over. Nothing new here.

Awesome! Love it. Thank you.

Woo! That was great! Downright awesome!!

let me save you time: It's The People!

Awesome video! Thank You Aaron Silverman!

This video did not age well.. a shame to hear about the drama with Rose’s Luxury 😟

fantastic speech !!

Human capital- restaurant changes ownership, employees leave, restaurant fails . You see this all the time.

Youll either find me with a successful or you will find me DEAD

Very informative. It will add value to your restaurant business. Impart training for upskills and brushing, this is a great way to treat your employees as a family member and develop attachment.

So, if he hired a staff of Jesus's, and they; gave slow, inaccurate service, had no skill in preparing food or beverage to specification, but provided heavenly hospitality, you'd feel good about hiring Jesus (great people)? Chef Silverman is very successful. But, he know's that a restaurant relies on the execution and timing of product and service, as well as the training he instills. Then, hiring responsible, focused, and genuine people, with the skill to provide that in some facet. It's the totality and balance of those variables. You're goddamn right he's in the restaurant business.

Wow, 9 minutes of repetitive cliches.

Not many businesses actually follow this basic and generic concept of 'Employees First'...whether retail, industrial, or manufacturing or other. That makes this presentation, supporting what should be basic and generic, extremely rare and insightful! Engaging the workforce is the key to his and others success. This is not the norm in the business world; and has greater import and impact than most owners realize.

TRUE LEADERSHIP!!

Amazing words 💪😎🙏 Ted love ur videos

We hire people because the love what they do it, and they do it with passions 🙏

‘... well-dressed employees’, says the guy with an untucked, wrinkled shirt

Namaste

And what restaurant exactly are you talking about??

Aaron is a great man, humble in person, always listening to what you have to say. Bravo!

Phenomenal assessment.

"We are in the people business" - Howard Schultz of Starbucks. There. Gave credit to who said it first. I agree with the commenters who said this presentation was nothing new. Of course you should hire good people. You should then take good care of those people. Common sense 101.

Meh.

If you got that modeling add at the beginning, he was flexing with that background

Man so many people in the comments are missing the important points in his talk. Please don't waste your time starting a business if you didn't take anything away or already knew what he's saying.

It was elightning because everyone don't no where to start.He teaches about good customer skills because some business don't know how to treat people and that's going make your business go down so someone needed to hear this

You are describing exactly what Chipotle is lacking. They are also a great concept.

Based on the comments I can tell people are not grasping the importance of what is being shared here. I agree 100% with what he is saying. The same rules apply to any industry. I am an operations director and my team is the reason we are successful at anything we do. I take pride in my team, they are my biggest investment.

I think this is pretty obvious, but in most markets there aren’t enough people to work.

My families restaurant was started by my great grand-parents in 1927 and had been passed through 4 generations of my family. We have had people work here for over 50 years. Why? Because we treat the people that work for us like family, not employees.

It really depends on what you are selling. For example, Starbucks make their money by selling a place for students, tourist, and regular people to congregate. They don't actually make their money selling coffee, but in order for you to use their facility you must buy their coffee.

The guy states that his food isn't good yet people still come. That must mean that he's selling something else. Probably a place for young folks to eat and chill. With me, when I eat out I expect the food to be good or I just won't do it. But then again I am not like most folks.

Too cringey

Advice for liberals who in the end have to shut their doors.

I gonna stop watching ted x if this is the stuff they keep putting up

Ted x is going downhill
