Wherever your restaurant is.
Workshops run live and virtual by default, for restaurant teams anywhere in the US. Four hours, capped at twelve people, $175 a seat. Everyone works in their own tools on their own screen, which is closer to the real job than any conference room.
Remote is the default because it is what keeps a seat at $175 instead of the price of a plane ticket. If you want me in the building, I travel, and we agree that number before anything is booked.
Why virtual is the default, not the fallback
Most training gets worse when you move it online, because most training is someone talking at a room and a screen makes that harder to sit through. This is not that. The work happens in your own POS and your own scheduling tool, and on a call everybody is already sitting in front of theirs.
In a room, one person drives and eleven watch. Remote, all twelve are in their own systems doing it themselves. For this particular job the remote version is genuinely the better one, and it costs you less.
Your GMs join from their own stores. Nobody closes a shift to drive somewhere.
For groups spread across locations
If you run several stores, remote solves a problem that in-person cannot. Your GMs join from their own buildings rather than all of them leaving at once, which means you are not choosing between training your managers and covering your shifts.
It also means every store hears the same thing on the same day, which is usually the actual problem in a group. Everyone doing it their own way is not a training gap, it is a consistency gap, and one session across all of them closes it faster than a tour.
When to fly me out instead
There are real cases for it. A new opening where the whole team is already together. A group meeting you were holding anyway. A room where half the people would not turn a camera on and you know it.
If that is you, say so and we will work out the cost honestly, travel included, before you commit to anything. I would rather talk you out of a flight than take money for one you did not need.

Questions people actually ask
- Is the remote version a lesser version?
- No, and it is the one most people take. Everyone is in their own tools on their own screen, which is closer to how the work actually happens than sitting in a hotel conference room watching someone else's laptop.
- What platform do you use?
- Google Meet. You get the link when you book. Nothing to install.
- What time zone do you run in?
- Arizona time, which does not observe daylight saving, so the listed time is the time all year. If that is awkward for your coast, ask and we will look at the schedule.
- Can my team join from different locations?
- Yes, and for a multi-unit group that is usually the point. Your GMs can each join from their own store rather than closing a shift to drive somewhere.
- Do you ever come in person?
- Yes. I travel, nationally. It costs more because it costs me more, and we work out the number before anything is booked. For most teams the virtual version does the same job for less.
- Does remote work for a whole team at once?
- Up to twelve, yes. Past that it stops being a conversation, and a conversation is the whole product.
