Chick-fil-A makes more per store than McDonald's by doing one thing well: a limited menu, consistent product, and knowing exactly who they serve. Most businesses fail by chasing every opportunity instead of staying disciplined and boring on purpose.
Chick-fil-A makes more per store than McDonald's, and it's not even close. They don't try and serve everyone. They know their customers. They obsess over consistency. They make the same product the same way every time. Most contractors do the opposite. They take every job, they chase every lead, they say yes to everything and wonder why it feels chaotic. Most businesses don't fail from a lack of opportunity. They fail from a lack of clarity. Chick-fil-A built an empire by being boring on purpose. If your business is too broad to be great, it's too messy to scale.
