Does Punch Do What It Says On The Tin? Ken, when it comes down to data analysis and manipulation I hardly need advice ( free or not ) from someone of your esteemed professional standing because you're so far out of your depth you need scuba gear. Whether or not a licencee is in trouble depends on one criteria alone......... their own perception of their individual situation. Horses for courses old chap and I've been to Epsom more times than I care to remember. I, for one, don't deal with muddy waters. edited by: chris roberts at: 04/07/2008 02:02:07 This post replies to S Roberts > Does Punch Do What It Says On The Tin? |

Does Punch Do What It Says On The Tin? Professional footballers, film, television and rock stars are possibly the only people left who can afford to take on tied pubs and subsidise them to keep them going. What I failed to mention at the head of this piece although I think everyone got it, is that it is a quote verbatim, cut and paste, from a Punch Inns advertisment for taking on their leases. The bit I really like is: "The Ideal Candidate: Quite simply, people from all kinds of backgrounds can carve out a future as successful licensees. YOU DON'T EVEN NEED PREVIOUS PUB EXPERIENCE" and the little throw away about: "THE FREEDOM OF SELF-EMPLOYMENT BACKED UP BY THE SUPPORT OF A MULTI-AWARD WINNING COMPANY". Oooh Aaah. And S Roberts you're right there are few Professionals in this trade. It's a business of Enthusiastic Amateurism as someone once pointed out as I was being introduced to Marco Pierre White. edited by: Mark Dodds at: 04/07/2008 10:15:50 This post replies to David Pott > Does Punch Do What It Says On The Tin? |

Does Punch Do What It Says On The Tin? Has to be said Unpalatable as it might be, Chris certainly has a point and good on him for making it I would also add that a good professional would also be a good listener and would never think he/she could not continue to learn from others This trade is forever changing and I have never quite understood why a professional in the trade would care to dismiss, out of hand, an opinion from a manager. Ken has no idea what is happening in the managed side of the trade yet has never sat back and just absorbed anything I have said. Hardly a good springboard to advise.

Does Punch Do What It Says On The Tin? Other example of what, Kevin? I have no idea what qualifications anyone here has as no one answered the question I posed on a thread that was locked because of irrelevant interruptions. The point I'm making is that *no one* in any type of business should misrepresent that business to potential clients; to use a term which implies greater credentials than actually exist is unacceptable. Pubs are FAILING in the current climate & people are losing their livelihoods; if they turn to a business adviser in good faith & that person does not have the credentials they say they have, then they are ADDING to the problems people are experiencing, not reducing them. Plus they are charging for the privilege. How anyone can justify such behaviour is beyond me. I have no problem with businesses who represent themselves fairly & honestly; it's the other kind that stick in my craw. edited by: S Roberts at: 04/07/2008 10:59:03 This post replies to kevin o'connor > Does Punch Do What It Says On The Tin? |

Does Punch Do What It Says On The Tin? I don't ever remember you posting an opinion based on a manager's perspective of the trade. Perhaps you will put me right on that one without making any personal attack or mentioning Ken or Bob and your imagined collusion between other posters.
