Show Notes
In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Andy Howard, president and CEO of Huey Magoo’s. This chicken-tender fast casual based in Florida recently opened its 66th location and is quickly franchising around the country. Andy was a part of the team that took Wingstop from about 80 stores to 600 before he discovered and bought Huey Magoo’s, and he joined the podcast to share the story of Huey Magoo’s incredible success and what it takes to stand out in the very busy and very popular chicken category.
In this conversation, you’ll find out why:
- A killer tagline can help you stand tall among competitors
- New store prototypes can unlock access to new potential franchisees
- To excel in this industry, you need to be good student of it
- Just like Goldilocks, your menu shouldn’t be too simple or too difficult, but just right
