Knowledge is the essential component in sales. The more the employee knows, the better they can sell the product. That's the easy part. But what if they don't know what their responsibility is behind selling the product? What if they don't know the exact effects of the product they are selling? That's where Smart Service is an extremely important factor for a bar/restaurant owner. Smart Service trainers have the most current information regarding all main factors involved in the food and beverage industry and over 23 years in the industry.

The course was approved/certified through the NYS Education Department on June 18, 2014. Training takes place on-premises or off-premises. If you would like more information regarding Smart Service please contact Jeffrey Rogers @ 315-303-5936 or go to the website at topshelfbartenders.net.
