Can you become so efficient, you don’t think you’re busy—even when you are? Good bartenders are good listeners, but these bar owners are a great case study for couple entrepreneurs. We’re back with Michael Eccleston and Katy Willis of Quarters Arcade Bar. Their story has interesting intel about couple cooperation, business insight, and will cure you of any fantasy about owning a bar. This convo is where yin meets yang and chaos meets lists and notes. (One loves a list. The other? Well…). There’s learning about, coping with and forgiving each other’s idiosyncrasies. And, bonus, in a case of business topology, you’ll learn more than you ever imagined about efficient bar design—which is an object lesson in efficiency for ANY operation, even yours. Plus, more hilarity than ever in the lightning round.

Owning A Bar Is Not For The Meek: Michael Eccleston and Katy Willis of Quarters Arcade Bar in Salt Lake City, Part 2

Today, we are talking to a pair of publicans. We are in downtown Salt Lake with Michael Eccleston and Katy Willis of Quarters Arcade Bar. This is not about that place where everybody knows your name. If you ever thought about owning a bar, this is the story that might scare you away. We’re talking about everything from the kind of investor relationships that should make you very afraid, to the power of persistence that demonstrates how overnight success is years in the making. This is also our unofficial, talking each other off the ledge episode. We’re going to be examining the power of a solid brand and purposeful, intentional brand marketing. We’ll talk about the things you don’t ever want an investor to see. And this is the first CoupleCo convo that features a Zoltar machine.
