Honorable Andrew M. Cuomo Governor, State of New York the Capitol Albany, New York 12224 Honorable Andrew M. Cuomo Governor, State of New York The Capitol Albany, New York 12224 Dear Governor Cuomo, As the owners and operators of New York’s restaurants, we write to express critical concern with your decision to unfairly and arbitrarily target our businesses. New York’s 20,000 limited-service restaurants are economic drivers; creating jobs and state revenue in every community from Staten Island to Schenectady. Our restaurants provide opportunity to more than 280,000 New Yorkers of all backgrounds and skill levels, a large majority of which are those just entering the workforce. While the decision to raise the minimum wage for restaurant workers may be well intentioned, circumventing our duly elected representatives and unilaterally appointing a wage board without representation from anyone in our industry is misguided at best and suspicious at worst. We remain voiceless in this process as you have chosen to exclude the very industry you are targeting in your decision-making. As a governor who claims to want to attract and retain business to the state, your actions send a contradictory message to the rest of New York’s business community who should rightfully ask: “who’s next?” The independent owners and operators of New York’s fast food restaurants are small and mid-sized local businesses that serve our communities and provide opportunity for those who are willing to work hard. We are not the corporations whose names we bear but rather New Yorkers who work hard each and every day. We – the owners and operators of New York’s restaurants – are law-abiding, tax-paying residents who run our own businesses. We are deeply concerned with the way in which you plan to increase the minimum wage for a single segment of a lone industry throughout New York State. Your actions will unfairly target our businesses without any input from those whose very livelihoods you will adversely affect – many of whom will have to decide for themselves if this forces them out of business entirely. Restaurants operate on razor-thin margins. Labor is among the highest cost, and a dramatic wage increase such as the one you are proposing, cannot simply be passed off in menu price-hikes to the detriment of patrons – and ultimately our industry – as restaurant spending is highly discretionary. By singling out fast food restaurants while ignoring other industries that hire entry-level workers, you will put our businesses at a competitive disadvantage. In doing so, you will leave behind more than two million New Yorkers making the minimum wage in other industries. While you claim New York is “open for business,” fast food restaurants will be anything but. We will be forced to find ways to automate, rethink our hiring decisions, any plans for expansion, and – ultimately – our very future in the communities we serve. Other solutions, like increased access to education, skills training and development across our state, are much more effective in solving New York’s wage gap. If you are truly serious about addressing income inequality, we ask that you think carefully about your decisions which could hurt hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers. Sit down with us, learn about our business models and see how restaurant owners and operators are employing New Yorkers across our state, fostering growth in each of our communities and providing training, upward mobility and opportunity to thousands of employees each day. Drastic wage increases are not the answer. They only hurt our ability to continue to foster growth, kill our competitiveness and our ability to create jobs in New York State. We would ask, Governor, that you sit down with us and negotiate the best ways to increase opportunity for everyone. At the very least, we would implore you to expand the makeup Wage Board to include at least one true representative of the fast food restaurant industry in order to allow for a more informed decision about the businesses you will severely and harmfully affect with the decision that remains yours – and yours alone. Plainly and simply – by forcing a wage increase on our businesses, you will put us out of business. Governor Cuomo, it’s time you hear our voice and help keep New York’s restaurants open for business. We look forward to hearing from your office. Thomas J.

  • Inside the Executive Suite (Tips, Tricks, and Techniques Used by the Nation’S Top Executives… to Get Things Done.)
    Briefing: Wednesday, 13 June 2018 Inside the Executive Suite (Tips, Tricks, and Techniques used by the Nation’s top Executives… to get things done.) Is IHOP Crazy or What? “Beyond the serious, fake, and sports news this month, a big marketing-oriented news story this week involved IHOP. The breakfast-focused brand announced a name change: IHOb, plus a modified logo featuring a smiley face. Its uppercase O and new lowercase b supplied the eyes for the face. IHOP teased the name change for several days, fostering speculation about whether the b would represent breakfast , bacon , or even Beyoncé . On Monday, IHOP ended all the speculation, revealing that the b stands for burgers . The change highlighted the brand’s addition of seven new Ultimate Steakburgers . Company president, Darren Rebelez, proposed that turning around the p to become a b showed IHOP is “’taking the burgers as seriously as we’re taking our pancakes.’” IHOP Is Crazy . or Not Online chatter focused on how crazy and ill-conceived the name change is. Social media is wonderful for providing loud voices to people whose message reach is orders of magnitude larger than their understanding about messages they share. Since we aspire to speak to a focused audience with real understanding on topics, let’s review the IHOb strategy to determine whether IHOP is crazy or savvy. What Goes into Strategy? USA Today and The Motley Fool addressed the IHOP move as just another restaurant brand using gimmicks to drive attention and sales. While the IHOP build-up implied a permanent name change, the reveal showed a short-term move to introduce burgers and boost traffic and sales.
