| 3/20/26 |  Pizza Shop Growth Is Up, But Are Your Operations Getting Better? | In this episode, I break down what I’m seeing inside the store right now as we move from growth mode into adjustment mode. Sales are up, momentum is real, and we’ve made solid progress from Period 1 to Period 3. But better sales do not always mean a healthier business. That is the real conversation here.

| 3/13/26 | The Difference Between Ownership and Influence | In this Takeout Tip episode, Tyrell Reed breaks down a hard truth that every pizzeria owner, partner, and investor needs to hear. Respect from your team does not come from ownership. It comes from leadership. If you think putting money into the business should automatically earn loyalty, trust, or influence, this episode will challenge that fast. Tyrell shares why staff respond to consistency, humility, support, and real value, not titles, ego, or ownership percentages. This is a strong messa... | 11m 27s | ||||||
