Who is Restaurant Masterminds For?
I’ve built Restaurant Masterminds for…
The independent restaurant owner that knows deep down that their restaurant can become better. They also know that in order to reach their potential they need a solid plan and an accountability coach to help them achieve their goals.
Have you ever felt...
Overwhelmed
You feel overwhelmed inside of your business and life and don’t have clarity, focus and understand of what to do next (or in the next 12 months)
Unsure
You feel like you need holistic help across all areas and pillars of your life and business not just the next “hack” or “tactic” to pay the bills.
Alone
You want to be part of a Community of Entrepreneurs who see Entrepreneurship as a way of life and that don’t believe that business has to be built from the wounded ego, creating burnout and a lack of excitement in your life.
Confused
You want to be able to have a business that is successful, scalable, profitable, that creates results for your clients, along with it creating results (and profit) for you in your life.
Exhausted
You want your business and every part of your business to feel good, while actually working. You don’t believe that marketing has to be bad, nor do you believe that you have to be salesy to get the next client.
Let Me Help You Get You The Restaurant You WANT!
Hi, I'm Donald Burns, The Restaurant Coach™. I have spent 40 years in this industry as a restaurant owner, executive chef with Wolfgang Puck, and a consultant/coach to billion-dollar brands, celebrity chefs, and mom-n-pop restaurant owners around the globe.
In 2012, I was like many business owners, I felt like my brand had plateaued and I wasn't sure how to break free from just "doing the same thing" to get to the next level. A good friend of mine, Bruce Irving (from smart pizza marketing) suggested I join a mastermind group. It
After 13 years as The Restaurant Coach™ and from working with over 2400 independent restaurants, I know what works.
Further, I know how to help independent restaurant owners, chefs, motivator restauranteur, and driven operators on how to make more without burning out, losing themselves, losing those important relationships around them… I’m here to help you build success in all areas by helping you get your restaurant “right” first.

The Four Things You MUST Have To Grow Your Restaurant
The Right Information

Strategy & Frameworks

Community & Connection
Showcase your authenticity, without the gimmicks.
The Right Information
There is a sea of content for Entrepreneurs… The core problem is that Entrepreneurs don’t have the right content for where they are at the moment.
It stems from one of the core problems of Entrepreneurs which is making the right choices, but at the right time. Content is the same.
Not only do we have content for every single part of scaling an online business, we also help you choose what to consume next, allowing you to ACTUALLY get what you need. This ensures you get the RIGHT information at the RIGHT time to ensure you don’t miss doing the right thing at the wrong time, plus saves you a LOT of time.
We have programs, workshops and courses, along with live content & challenges that span from marketing, sales, operations, finance, mindset, team, delivery and everything in-between. Not only do you get access to all of our founder (Scott Oldford’s) programs… you also get access to over 100 hours of training from those he’s mentored personally.
Here’s just a few of the programs you get access to…
Plus...24/7 access to my private online training library
You get access to new MBA paths that are released each month to help you in specific areas of your business.
These paths are designed to allow you to help you implement new strategies and tactics in your business in less than a day. Instead of teaching you something for 8 hours, it’s all about implementing and being able to have something new that you’ve implemented inside of your business.
Coaching and Mentorship
If you’re looking for the ultimate “growth hack” mentorship and coaching is what you’re looking for…
Modern Business Academy includes group coaching and mentorship from both Scott along with over 40 other experts that together allow for 40+ sessions per month to get coached and mentored in scaling, marketing, operations, sales, delivery, mindset and finances.
These experts are Entrepreneurs themselves that have personally worked with Scott or that MBA is an investor in, ensuring that you always get the best coaching and mentorship for the growth of you & your business.
You Get Two Group Coaching Sessions EACH Week, PLUS Bonus Training Sessions Twice a Month...
Strategy and Frameworks
The right information, coaching & mentorship will bring you far in the growth of your business, however, what we’ve found is even more powerful?
Strategy & Frameworks that have been proven to work.
While we’re massive believers in having “your own plan” and ensuring that you’re in alignment inside of your business, the truth is this…
Having a framework, no matter if it’s for your finances… hiring team… building your funnel… and then paring it with a strategy that works for you.
It’s a complete game changer and condenses the amount of time needed for growth, while increasing the momentum in your life & business.
In Modern Business Academy we have frameworks, methods and strategies that are mapped based on your type of business, revenue, desired result and pillar of business.
Community & Connection
Being lonely as an Entrepreneur is unfortunately normal. We believe that this can be completely changed, allowing you to feel connected in your journey.
Modern Business Academy creates a place of community, allowing for you to connect with other Entrepreneurs like you, while also being able to be inspired and motivated by those a step, or two ahead of you.
On a weekly basis we host a variety of virtual events centered around connection and being able to meet others in your own local communities, while building friendships and masterminding with other likeminded Entrepreneurs.
We believe that you don’t need to pay $50,000 to be in a community of likeminded, motivated and inspiring Entrepreneurs that feel like family :).
See what members are saying about Restaurant Masterminds…
Tony Simmons
Restaurant Masterminds was one of the best decisions I’ve made! Donald and the other members have provided real-world and actionable solutions for me. Specifically, the advice for creating (and revising) our Core Values, Key Performance Indicators (KPI), and in particular, Guest Check Averages, have made an immense difference and helped increase our revenue and profitability. I recommend Restaurant Masterminds to any business that wants to succeed.
Phil Ly
The value provided by Donald and everyone in the Restaurant Masterminds group is phenomenal. Since I’ve joined the group, my thinking and the way I go about my business have been challenged and changed for the better. If you’re serious about doing the work and growing your restaurant, this group is for you.
Vicki Cisneros
"Restaurant owners think that because they know hospitality, that is all they need to be successful. In reality, knowing their numbers is critical to longevity in this industry. I wish I had met this Mastermind group about thirty years ago. It would have saved me a lot of day-to-day mistakes that were costly to my bottom line. I am grateful for the coaching, mentorship, and opportunities that Donald has provided, and the strides I have made since becoming part of the group."
Al Silverspoon
Joining Restaurant Masterminds™ was a no brainer as it will give me the opportunity to see the whole picture: menu design, marketing, branding, strategy, and how to build a kick-ass operation. This for me, is like getting my Ph.D. in leadership with the best coach in the world, Donald Burns!
Brian Nittayo
Donald is the Tony Robbins of the restaurant industry. Besides sharing a wealth of restaurant knowledge he inspires personal growth. Self improvement will change your restaurant. After owning Rose City Pizza for 12 years, I can finally embrace the vision of growing the brand and living the life I’ve always wanted with Restaurant Masterminds.
