Restaurants and IT: Waiting for the “Tech Plumber”

When the Tech Backs Up: Why Restaurants Shouldn’t Wait for IT Disasters

Imagine this: It’s game night at a bustling sports bar, but suddenly, the WiFi goes down, the point-of-sale (POS) system crashes, and the TVs flicker off just as the big play is about to happen. The bar owner is scrambling on the phone with their IT consultant, while in the background, the plumber casually fixes a leaky pipe, blissfully unaware of the tech chaos unfolding around him.

Sound familiar? Restaurants and bars often treat their IT systems like plumbing—they only call the “tech plumber” when the system is backed up. But proper IT maintenance, regular check-ins, and a trusted advisor can prevent these disasters from happening in the first place. Don’t wait until you’re knee-deep in tech issues before you call for help—partner with your IT consultant now and avoid the mess.
