● Your ally behind the bar · Intensive Intervention

The Bar Reset

Full Day

Full Day

After 20 years in the industry, my job isn't to tell you what to do from the outside. It's to step behind your bar with you, put my experience at the service of your operation, and leave you with the tools to make the results last.

● What I see when I walk into the bar for the first time

Most bars don't lose money because of one big failure. They lose it through small leaks that repeat every day — and that no one is measuring. pequeñas fugas que se repiten todos los días sin que nadie las mida.

"I know these problems because I've lived them. I've been behind the bar for 20 years. And what I learned is that most owners don't need someone to point out the obvious — they need an ally who steps in with them, measures what matters, and helps them fix it."

● Your ally for building a world-class beverage program

Anthony Medina — 20 years in the industry, 23+ beverage programs across 8 countries

I started as a bartender in Venezuela. I worked with 80+ location chains like UDON. I designed and led beverage programs in Miami, New York, Europe, and Latin America. I competed, judged, and trained bartenders for two decades.

What sets me apart from other consultants is that I understand both sides: the craft and the business. Every recipe I design has a calculated margin. Every process has an operational purpose. And every decision is backed by local market data — not intuition.

"Working with Anthony as our mixologist, his professionalism, creativity, and precision brought a higher level of sophistication to our beverage program. His attention to detail set a new standard at our bar."

● How we work together

6 hours. 5 phases. Working side by side on your real operation.

Each phase is designed so you see what I see, understand why it matters, and know exactly how to sustain it afterward.

1

Mystery Shopper & 360° Diagnostic

On a day prior to the Full Day, I visit your bar and experience it the way your guest does. I observe the full operation: timing, service, rhythm, order, missed opportunities. Then I show you what I found — so you see your bar with fresh eyes.

You walk away with an executive diagnostic report: clear findings and quick wins you can apply that same day.
2

Cocktail & Profitability Audit

We sit down together and review the cocktails with the biggest impact on your business. We analyze real cost, portion control, build times, unnecessary complexity, and where the opportunity to improve margin is — without changing what makes you, you.

Your key cocktails adjusted with a focus on margin, speed, and repeatability.
3

Staff Technical Training

I work directly with your team — not lecturing them, but executing alongside them. Jigger use, portion control, build technique, sequencing, ice, glassware, garnish, and movement flow under pressure.

Your team leaves sharper, faster, and with a clear standard they can repeat shift after shift.
4

Processes, Setup & Mise en Place

We redesign together what happens behind the bar: mise en place, station layout, tool placement, glassware, service flow, and opening, service, and closing criteria. I walk you through every change so you understand the why.

A cleaner, more functional bar — built to produce with less friction.
5

Executive Review & Action Plan

We close the day together — you and me, looking at the numbers. Margin, timing, errors, shrinkage, execution. I leave you with clear priorities, a simple plan, and the follow-up criteria to capitalize on everything we worked on — without depending on me.

Full clarity on where you were, where you are, and what to do in the next 2 weeks.
● What you walk away with

Your tools, not mine. Ready to use from day one.

Everything I leave in your bar is designed to work and stay consistent. Because my job is to give you clarity and independence.

Diagnostic Report — Bar Performance Lab

The 5 key findings from your operation, their real economic impact, and the prioritized immediate actions. One page, no filler.

Audited & standardized cocktails

A technical spec sheet with Good/Better/Best costing, service SOP, pricing structure, and a procedure your team can replicate without variation.

Operations Dashboard — Bar Health Check

A system to read your bar's health in 3 minutes a day, pulled directly from your POS. No Excel, no complicated dashboards. A daily operational traffic light.

Professional Operations Checklists

Opening, closing, batches, mise en place, garnish, and daily setup. Print-ready, designed to post at the bar and use starting tomorrow.

Optimized Station Layout

Your bar's layout redesigned so the team moves better, not harder. Speed rail, tools, glassware, and workflow built around your specific reality.

● Expected results in 14 days

I bring the experience, the tools, and the direction. You bring the execution. Together we move the numbers.

If your team implements the changes, your manager follows through, and there's discipline in recipes, station, and service:
+3–6 p.p.

Beverage margin increase

+5–12%

Average ticket increase

−10–25%

Reduction in shrinkage, errors, and rework

14 días

Post-intervention follow-up included

I don't promise miracles. I promise clarity, direction, and the right tools. Results are something we build together.

● The difference is simple

I don't tell you what to do. I do it with you.

A Full Day fixes what's urgent in 6 hours. An Immersion Week builds systems in 7 days. But if what you need is a complete beverage program — from concept to management dashboard, including brand negotiations — you need The Full Pour.

Full Day is for you if…

You have an active operation and feel it has more to give.
You want someone with real experience to step in and work with you — not observe from the outside.
You value honesty, execution, and results over talk.
You need clarity and tools, not more theory.

Full Day is not for you if…

You're looking for an express redesign of concept, staff, or systems.
You need a full operations manual or multi-week training program.
There's no real willingness to implement changes.
You don't have an active operation to intervene in.
● My commitment to you

If within the first hour of working together you don't feel clarity, don't see direction, don't sense that this is going to change something real in your operation… we stop. No charge.

Because if I can't demonstrate value to you in 60 minutes inside your bar, I haven't earned the other five hours.

That's how I work: I prove it first, then I ask for trust.

In 23+ operations across 8 countries, no one has ever asked to stop.
● Frequently Asked Questions

Before we talk

3 hours of field analysis (mystery shopper) plus 6 hours working directly at your bar with your team — 9 hours total. Includes a pre-analysis before the day and a 14-day follow-up to ensure the changes hold.

The bar manager and the full bar team. One decision-maker (owner, GM, or F&B Director) at the kickoff and the close. It's important that whoever makes decisions sees the findings firsthand.

Not in the traditional sense. This is a hands-on intervention where I work side by side with your team: I diagnose, correct, standardize, and leave you with ready-to-use tools. Everything happens at your bar, in real time, with your actual operation. It's also not a cocktail menu creation or recipe development session — it's a review of what you already have, optimized.

Quick wins are applied the same day. KPIs are tracked starting the next day. At 14 days, we validate the improvement together using your POS data. Results depend on your team executing with discipline what we worked on.

Access to the operation, your current menu, key recipes, basic cost data, a willing team, and a POS sales report. I handle everything else.
