Description

Most bar owners spend hours tweaking their menu or pricing strategy and barely think twice about the lighting, music, or layout. 

But what if the way your bar feels is quietly bleeding money... or driving up your revenue? 

This episode breaks down how your atmosphere directly influences customer behavior, from how long they stay to how much they spend. 

  📌  What You’ll Learn 📌 

🌟 How your bar’s environment directly impacts what guests spend
🌟 The layout mistakes that quietly turn customers away
🌟 Why lighting can make or break the guest experience
🌟 How color choices influence appetite and mood
🌟 The surprising role music tempo plays in guest behavior
🌟 Simple atmosphere tweaks that can boost your bottom line
🌟 How to design seating for both privacy and connection

We're talking practical, evidence-backed changes you can actually use like lighting that boosts dessert sales or music that encourages guests to stick around for another round.

If you want to make more money without spending more money, you’ll want to hear this.
