Step 1
Learn the business from the ground up. Spend time working in a restaurant and do every job there. Wash dishes, cook, serve the food and manage the staff. Spend time behind the bar and at the door seating guests. As a restaurant owner, you must be prepared to fill in any of these positions when they are empty.
Step 2Write a short-term and a long-term business plan to present to your investors. Prepare to put up a good portion of the initial investment. Banks and investors like to see you take on some of the risk with them.
Step 3Make sure that your family understands the obligations you are bringing into their lives. Restaurants are demanding mistresses and can take you away from home more than some other industries. While you may plan on hiring others to be on site, depending on the hours you will be open, your presence will be demanded more than you might imagine.
Step 4Get a degree in hospitality management if you feel that you are too inexperienced to just jump right into restaurant ownership. A hospitality degree will give you a great idea of all the ins and outs of the business while preparing you with the tools that you'll need to run a successful hospitality business.
