So, Where Do You Stand?

Maybe you run a pub now, working with one of the major pub groups or breweries? If you are happy with that situation then great stick with it.

However, if you want to explore our alternative opportunity then please check out if any of the points below apply to you. 

• Any sign of increased success based on your hard work means there could be a rent increase. The better you do, the higher the rent.

• As you are tied to buy products, the stock you are buying is highly priced and isn’t at true market prices which reduces your earnings.

• If you have a games machine, pool table, juke box or anything that makes you money over and above your drinks sales, you generally receive a minority percentage of the takings.

• You may also be charged for items such as insurance, systems maintenance etc.. You know that these can be purchased at a far better price but you are tied to them. 

• Although you are "working for yourself", are you really? Do you have all the issues of running your own business for less reward?

• What do you own at the end of it all? Who has made the most profit out of the pub business you ran. You or the company you were tied to? 

• Apart from fixtures and fittings, who owns the biggest asset you have worked for, you or the company you are tied to?

So as we said, if you are happy with your situation then stick with it. If you think there has to be more reward in running your own pub business then KickStart! for a PubStart! now.
