A restaurant is only as good as the team behind the scenes. As an owner or manager, you’re already well aware that your team and your customers are the lifeblood of your enterprise. Considering your customers as part of your team may be an even more constructive approach. Just like your team, you need to engage with your customers. Businesses that can’t comprehend the importance of customer engagement view their customers as nothing more than, well… customers.

It is also confusing to see how many can do so without a thought or regret. Maybe, if that time was spent doing something that was not really that enjoyable – this reaction makes sense. For me – not so much.
