DELICASS LLC. (D.B.A.) Owner – General Manager ALPHARETTA,GA 2010 – 2013

As owner operator of this concept restaurant, I participated in everything from concept development to cooking and staffing. With careful and diligent execution I built a much known well known place in Alpharetta, Georgia. We consistently had top scores with the health department, and perfect reviews on internet. The concept was a fusion of different cuisines to make gourmet sandwiches with quality products and reasonable prices, always providing very fast service to compete with the idea of a fast food but with top quality ingredients. The concept was featured in local newspapers and all were surprised and excited with my concept. I was the creator of the sandwiches, named them and theme developed, the theme of the restaurant. I grew the business from zero to 350K annual sales prior to selling.

AUTOSMITH OF GEORGIA General Manager Leader used car and finance corporate company NORCROSS, GA 2008 - 2010

As the General Manager of Autosmith of Georgia, I received the challenge of revamping a dealer ship that was suffering from declining sales and poor collections. Due to mismanagement the location I was responsible for had declined to 9th in sales in a 11 dealership franchise. The President of the company charged me with a turn around and a deadline of 90 days with the threat of closing. I met that challenge by doubling the sales volume and moving the location to #4 of 11 in the chain within the first 30 days. Despite the fact that we did not have the premium location we consistently stayed at number 4 or 5, even obtaining 3rd place one month during my tenure. Along with increasing sales volume, I also brought collections current, reduced bad debt and restored cash flow to the location. By implementing sales training and increasing moral, I created a positive and successful work environment. I also managed daily dealership responsibilities such as vehicle inventory, online marketing, staffing, training and financial operations.

I joined Bryans Auto Sales as the General Manager of one of 2 dealerships, I doubled sales the very first month, and stayed at that level during my stint with the company, however, after a few months the owner had some serious personal issues and resulting budget cuts made it difficult to operate the location.

Norsan Group D.B.A. Frontera Mex Mex Grill is a unit of a large group of restaurants and I managed the location on Jimmy Carters Blvd in downtown Atlanta. When I started the location was one of the poorest performers in the group, 8th or 9th in the group of 12 restaurants. After a difficult turn around, I was able to restore the location to 3rd in sales in about 6 months. By the end of the year we won the prize for the best restaurant of the year with the best income and the highest profits in the chain, beating the restaurant in third place by almost double. We had almost perfect standard of loss and food cost. Definitely a great job, with a great team and only a few times in my life have I been so satisfied with results like these. Along with my corporate reporting responsibilities, I was responsible for opening and closing, staffing, training, profit and loss, ordering and inspections.
