Jon Taffer quotes:

If you had a dime for every excuse you made, I wouldn't have to be here right now.

The greatest gift of leadership is a boss who wants you to be successful.

Clean your freakin' fryer. Be responsible for Christ's sake!

Can I be cocky for a second? If I hit a home run 80 percent of the times, and you want to talk about the 20 times I miss swinging the bat, I'm okay with that.

What is the one thing that 43% of men prefer over sex? Bacon!

When I get angry, it's with purpose. My purpose is to solve a problem. And I never lose sight of that.

I never thought I'd ever do a pirate bar, to be honest with you.

No matter how far society "progresses," our thirst for community and connection will never diminish. Bars satisfy this need.

Challenges met are the scariest but are sometimes the most worthwhile.

There is not one obstacle standing in the way of your success anymore.

Fixing bars is easy. Fixing people is tough.

In the thirty years of my career I learned everything about success, but I did not learn, really, about failure. In Bar Rescue I got exposed to failure at a very deep level.

The biggest lesson I learned in the bar business is to focus on revenues. Dollars, not dimes.

I don't accept excuses, only solutions.

You better do your job and not lean on me to do it for you.

A consultant is only as good as their last project.

I don't embrace excuses. I embrace SOLUTIONS

I don't embrace excuses. I embrace solutions.

If you're not passionate, you achieve mediocrity

I'm very involved in all of my social media activities. I'm not an actor. I play myself, and I take that very seriously.

The fact of the matter is: when you're doing a project, you try to make it better every moment. And a lot of people get frustrated. But I surrounded myself with a good team of people and I'm really proud of the work we've all done. All I can say is - I've learned this in my business - don't let the process frustrate you; focus on the end. Because the end is pretty wonderful. Just fight it out.

Your "?brand' is what your customers think of you, not what you think of you.

When I talk to idiots, I get loud!

See every crack, every detail. I learned to really see and not just look at my business.

If it isn't spotless, it isn't clean!

The best rescues of all leave a family in a better place.

I've had a best-practices reputation in this industry for a long time. I don't know anything about those other apps, because in the bar space, there really are none.

I came up with this idea to create an app. And the premise of the app is this: every problem in the bar business goes away when there's sales. You increase revenue and you solve every problem. It's when the revenues are low that [the business] doesn't work. So I wanted to put together an app that focused on top-line revenue, guest experience, and business management in a more organized way.
