Management Plan

The management team is an especially close one. All of the managers graduated from Fort Valley State University with a bachelors degree in business management. The managers have communicated very often with each since school. The two co-presidents have worked directly together for three years at different companies. One of the presidents has worked with the bar manager in the past and has known her for nearly five years. Together we share a single vision: to provide a unique and entertaining experience through exceptional service.

The company will have six managers, including two presidents, one vice president, a bar manager, and two managers.

Mary Askew, Co- President. She has a bachelors degree in business management, five years management in the restaurant/bar business, consultative experience opening other bars, six subsequent years management in the car industry ending currently with his current position as department manager. Her specific responsibilities will lie primarily with the coordination of events and oversight of the operations and evening activities of the restaurant and bar.

Kimberly Blackmon, Co-President. She is pursuing a life-long ambition of restaurant/nightclub ownership. Three years of restaurant kitchen experience and nearly eight years of experience managing people ending with three and a half years of finance management. Kimberly is committed to not only creating a successful business but also successfully running it. Even though her hands-on experience in business management is extensive through the finance business, she has spent the last year and a half researching business and business ownership in her spare time. Her specific responsibilities will be administrative management to include inventory management, accounts payable, purchasing, payroll, and public relations with limited marketing involvement (mostly direct) to other companies.

Crystal Ward, Vice President. She has a bachelor's degree in industrial media management. Her experience ranges from radio marketing sales to three years as a financial analyst for L3 Communications. She is a born leader to whom people of all levels flock. Crystal's responsibilities will be limited to marketing with local radio and newspaper and her day-to-day role in the restaurant will be a mostly silent one.
