THE PROGRAM FOR INDEPENDENT RESTAURANT OWNERS DETERMINED TO WIN 

by award-winning active restaurant owner and best-selling author Mike Bausch.

OUR MISSION:
Flip The Failure Rate

3 OUT OF 5 restaurants CLOSE in their first 5 years.
Of those that make it, most get SLICED in a million directions… constant stress, small profit margins, and an unclear path of the smartest next move.

We exist to flip this.

If you’ve got the will, we’ll show you the way—backed by 20+ years in the game and systems proven by hundreds of restaurant owners winning today.

Unsliced shows EXACTLY HOW TO DO IT

That’s why Unsliced Graduates report 10x on their investment within the first 6 months.

We've spent an insane amount of money on consultants, programs, and applications to learn everything possible to make our restaurants better.

The investments have proved a solid ROI, but they've never been accessible to most restaurant owners. I've boiled it all down, from the practical business protocols to my proprietary tools, and created a direct path to success that's easy to navigate.

My mission is to give the tools I wish I had earlier to any restaurant owner seeking a better way and ready to do the work. For every owner who is ready for a change, determined to succeed, and will not accept failure, this is for you.

The Unsliced Restaurant System is extremely COMPREHENSIVE. Unsliced is truly all-encompassing without ever overwhelming. I don’t care if you have an MBA in business or didn’t finish high school. This program gives you an end-to-end perspective on your business to ensure success. It shows exactly what to implement and how to make it happen.
Christina Martin

MIKE IS THE BEST; I love this guy; thanks for sharing your wisdom and making restauranting not feel so hard. This is how I feel about what Mike has created, and I want whoever reads this to know that I’ve owned a bunch of concepts over the years and done all sorts of self-help, but nothing like this and Unsliced. It’s so approachable but still such a game-changer.
Joe Ledwidge
Ranger Joe's
The course is powerful. Simply stated, it’s truly powerful. There are so many tools to make our job and our business successful. As you get through each module, you start unpacking all these great tidbits and training tools, and it’s just something that was needed. For someone restarting in the business after growing up in it, this has been an invaluable course, and I look forward to how it will change our business. My family owned franchises, and I was happy to take a different path in law enforcement for 30 years, but coming back to the restaurant industry meant learning fast to make up for lost time.
Gino Vaccaro
The Original Pinsaria

Mike Bausch’s UNSLICED program is an incredibly helpful AND practical system to significantly help any restauranteur. The course provides clear, fun, and easy-to-understand videos, practical written materials, immediately useful documents and forms, specific scripts for staff for every situation, and an extremely positive and supportive community.

In 2022, I came across this amazing book. Mike Bausch had me at his first F-bomb, and I knew immediately he spoke my language and was really living this. I was glued to the pages, made highlights, and made notes on questions I had. Mike really challenged my thoughts, and I wanted to know so much more. So, I stalked his social media to learn more, thinking if I could just learn one more thing… just one more thing.

If I had to pick just one word to describe the impact of the Get Unsliced Course on our business, it’d be ‘mindblowing.’ After 26 years in the grind across three locations, I thought I’d seen it all. But just one hour with Mike made me realize there’s much more to learn.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes, the Unsliced Methods have been successful across Mike’s other endeavors in mobile, kiosk, quick service, and fine dining. They are designed to elevate all types of independent restaurants regardless of menu.

While your managers can get in the mix, this course is designed for owners to establish the vision and culture of their brand. Leaders should learn the systems and then teach their team to effectively execute the vision, not the other way around.

Your call, but Unsliced offers a holistic approach that covers all the aspects of your restaurant for high-functioning owners. It’s not simply metrics or marketing; it’s designed around real-world systems, which makes several other apps and programs obsolete.

The visibility surge is designed to get a quick tangible ROI from smarter marketing. After that, having better employee sales techniques, and elevated vendor negotiations. Through time savings, streamlined operations, and better financial management, you’ll optimize your business profits quickly to set them up for the long run.

This is the only program developed by a highly successful multi-unit, independent restaurant owner specifically for other independent restaurant owners. It's built around proven systems tested over decades across all parts of a restaurant, with ongoing input from an actively successful owner.

Many successful restaurateurs find that while they are profitable, they lack streamlined systems and carry the burden themselves with no exit strategy. This program offers systems to improve efficiency and increase ROI, ensuring that even successful businesses can find opportunities to grow.

Starting with a strong operational foundation is crucial. It’s better to establish your processes now, before you open, rather than trying to implement them during the busy launch phase.

The program includes both group and individual elements. After graduating from the program, you'll have a direct session to plan ongoing strategies. This program was designed to feel like one-on-one consulting as if Mike flew to your business, plus a feedback loop of check-in and graduation calls.

The course is designed to be flexible. Typically, it takes about three months, but you can adjust the pace to suit your schedule. The key is continuous engagement, not speed.

Yes, you'll use an accountability tracker and member success check-ins to ensure that you remain engaged and to help keep your progress on track.

Absolutely, the program is priced per brand, allowing you and your business partner to participate fully..

No, this is for independent owners who don’t have millions to spend on consultants. It’s built to even the playing field.

No, that violates the terms of the agreement. The course materials are intended solely for use within your own restaurant.

Not everyone is a fit for our community. The Unsliced Community is carefully curated to include passionate individuals dedicated to improving themselves, their restaurants, their teams, and their communities. This program is reserved for those who are committed to achieving success in all these areas.
