Very powerful video dear Ned. Last summer I trained some new stuff with your experience... Steps of service. It went pretty well. I'm collecting some good training for the new sommer staff as well from your channel and this video is like a "as on a ten" (balkan folk saying). Thank you for sharing your knowledge and make as waiters feel more confident generals on the battlefield 👍🙏🇮🇸👋🏔️⛄💪
We've now normal day and night, in May it will be 24h of daylight...crazy Iceland :) Yep, I'm coming to croatia from 18.04-03.05 to Istria. Now I'm preparing a new training program with my colleague for the new summer staff with some of your material. Are you satisfied with your new job in Swiss? Anything new in your life? PS: I'd like to order some T-Shirts from the waiters academy, I need more precised size information. I'll write you an email soon or maybe call you trough Facebook.
I'm a bar supervisor in the restaurant, and I hope to become a wine sommelier in the future . Recently, I'm struggling in upselling and sell the wine. Thank you Sir, this video really gives me a lot of advice and idea.
Hi Ganes, thanks for the kind words! Take advantage of the Waiters Academy free online course and learn even more or even get a certificate! Give me your support and create your profile on the waiters Network so I can help you find the good jobs in the future! Good luck!
Sir you so nice person you doing great job so its very help full for us. You so great person. I'm watching your vedios and lirning day by day. Thank you my teacher
Hello waiters and waitresses, give me your support by creating a profile on the Waiters Network today. That will mean a lot to me and it will allow me to help you and many others in the future, providing jobs, training and advice for free! Thanks for your help. I am always available if you have questions. www.waitersnetwork.com
Hey Ned! Love your videos, they really helped me a lot! Can you make a video with some tips on how to be better at handling bigger groups? Let's say from 12-13 people onwards.. Thanks!
Wow. I’ve had so many waiting on jobs, and never thought of them as opportunities, and hence never lasted very long. If I’d gone in with this mind set, I think my life would have been quite different.
Hi Olga am on a mission to promote guiliversrove.blogspot.com I found the writings brilliant..try it too let's better our be jobs and our love lives...
I am starting at a fine dining establishment. My question is, how can I learn more about the wine if I don’t actually drink alcohol? I have tried a lot of wine in the past so I am familiar with the different kinds but it has been a while and not all Chardonnay is the same.
For sure not all chardonay is the same :) Ask the guests about their experience and use that when you describe the wine for the next guests. You can taste wine without to drink it, if that is an option for you! Check the wine course at the Waiters Academy. It will be ready in two weeks
I’m in the same boat, I just started doing FOH instead of back in my own restaurant n I don’t drink! We sell Indian food and any pointers would be helpful
You have mission early about all guess are having main and it happened one person is having appetize so what if one all of them are having main how will you do
hi sir! your videos are without a doubt very helpful and informative. i just have a question tho, what if the guest requested to eat their main course while this 1 specific guest is eating his or her appetizer, are we going to grant this request? thank you so much!
Good question, Elle! Yes, we will! We are there to serve the guests and if that is what they want, this is what we will do. Except if this is a party and everyone has to eat at the same time the same dish! Then of course we will kindly deny the request.
The objective of suggestive selling in F&B section, for having this technique is to educate all FOH staff that suggestive selling makes them become a better salesman, to attract the guest to purchase more items, and to improve the budget-friendly image of the restaurant or in a bar, by having this technique 100% the guest check average will be increase
Hi sir I'm a vegetarian yet I work in a restaurant with Lebanese cuisine they are famously famous for their grills, sometimes I find it difficult to upsell this items cus I don't even eat them yet I don't want to lie to the guess what do u suggest I do because I really love up selling plus our management provide a certificate each month for the best seller of the month plus a big fat tip
YOu have the problem my wife has :) This is what I do! For example I don't like to drink white wines and I don't test every white wine that we have in restaurant to be able to sell it! I talk to my guests and I ask question: What do you think about that wine? What is the flavor, the body overall test? Then I use this to describe the wine to other guests! YOu can do the same! Ask your guests about their experience with the meat dishes and then use that as a selling point to your other guests! You don't lie to them this way and you do your job as a waiter! What do you think about that?
@@TheWaitersAcademy thank you sir I just had the interview with Marriott yesterday I was asked if I could sell a stake after testing it but I told the interviewer I'm a vegetarian he was quite surprised but I let him know it doesn't stop me from selling or upselling the item that I just need to know how it's prepared and definitely can tell how it taste he was pleased I was being honest with him. so I passed through the second stage for the interview and I was asked if I have any questions I asked him if I stand a chance of getting thos Job he said he had put my name on the training list and that I will here from them in 10 days so what do you think sir do I still stand a chance of getting this job or not?
@@linettetegha7925 absolutely! They won't call you for a second interview if they didn't think you a worth hiring! Congratulations for getting there! Being honest a good sign for them! YOu have done well! Get really prepared for the second interview! It will be harder and the questions will be more in dept and detailed! You sound like a girl who knows what she is doing so I am confident you will do great! Good luck and come back to tell us how did everything went!
@@TheWaitersAcademy good news I just signed my letter of employment with Marriott finally and thank you sir for all the encouragement I hope I excell in this great opportunity
@@linettetegha7925 you just made my day way happier! I am so glad you got the job and I wish you great time at Marriott! You will excel there I have no doubt about it! Best of luck and stay in touch!
Thanks, Mario! There is nothing sexy and interesting in learning how to sell and upsell. The fun starts once you have become really good with that skill! Good luck!
