Jon Taffer, entrepreneur, CEO and hospitality trailblazer will deliver the keynote “Taffer’s “Cut the BS Excuses that Hold you Back” during Questex’s 2019 Nightclub & Bar Show at the Las Vegas Convention Center on Tuesday, March 26 from 11 to 11:45 a.m. Based upon the New York Times Bestseller, “Don’t BS Yourself!: Crush the Excuses That Are Holding You Back,” Taffer’s keynote, sponsored by Paramount Network, will offer methods on how to increase productivity and revenue through challenging the habits and processes business owners use to justify failure.

Recognized as an international celebrity and entrepreneur, Taffer is known for his revolutionary television show “Bar Rescue,” where he travels around the country reviving failing bars and restaurants along with repairing the mindsets of management. Taffer’s keynote will bring his raw and unrelenting advice to the table as he breaks down the mindsets that business owners and managers use as a crutch.

“With more than 35 years of rescuing countless businesses with the Bar Rescue team and my company, Taffer Dynamics, I continue to see the same mistakes owners and managers make,” Taffer says. “What business operators don’t realize is that it’s the smallest details and nuances that can denigrate an establishment’s reputation and perhaps worse, your revenue. I plan on breaking apart the excuses and highlight the simple fixes so attendees can cut the BS and move forward to running a successful business and a motivated team.”
