   Tapping into Profit with Nick Spohn, FLOTEQ, Episode 314.

   Today, Tony learns how to make draft beer, wine, and cocktails more profitable. The problem is more than overpouring and friendly bartenders sneaking a few to friends. Discover how one innovative system is turning wasted pours into serious profits for bars, restaurants, and hospitality operators. Meet Nick Spohn, President, FLOTEQ The Big Idea: Draft beverages have long accepted a painful reality: up to 30% waste from theft, temperature fluctuations, pressure issues, dirty lines, and more. Operators treated it as "just part of the game"—until now. FLOTEQ delivers real-time, ground-zero data from the tap, giving owners unprecedented visibility and control. The Pour Score: A brilliantly simple metric that distills 96 variables (volume, temperature, pressure, and more) into one easy-to-read score. Open the app and instantly know how your draft system is performing—no PhD required. POS Integration Magic: Marries physical pour data with point-of-sale records for timestamped, evidence-grade accountability. What your staff rings up vs. what actually flows from the tap? Now crystal clear. As one might say, "Nowhere to hide"—except maybe promoting a bartender to customer status with a purchased pint. Before & After Transformations Operators historically shrugged off 25-30% losses. Post-installation? Eye-opening results: One high-volume Phoenix spot cut waste dramatically on their top brand, ordering fewer kegs yet banking $450 more in just two weeks. Typical ROI: 10-25x, often paying for itself many times over in the first month. Fixes go beyond theft—coolers running too warm? Pressure off? The system flags it simply: "Call the gas guy." Owners run businesses, not physics labs. More revenue from the bar (the true profit center), stronger teams (data over accusations), and smarter decisions on pricing, promotions, and menus. Forward-Looking Innovations: Flowboard, launching soon, turns data into action: a customer-facing digital bar display showing what's on tap, temperatures, popular pours, and targeted promotions for high-margin items. Perfect for testing new keg cocktails, wines, or "better-for-you" options in a shifting market. With rising food and labor costs plus evolving consumer habits (hello, Gen Z and millennials), the pressure is on. FLOTEQ helps operators maximize every pour, try new things, and stay competitive—whether it's packed stadiums moving hundreds of kegs per game or neighborhood spots fighting thin margins. Scaling Insights & Advice: Building in hospitality? Prioritize robust systems early—POS, inventory, HR, and tech like this—before scaling. Changing tires at 100 mph never ends well. Focus on serious operators who value data-driven growth, adaptability across tech stacks, and squeezing every drop of efficiency. This isn't just monitoring taps—it's empowering hospitality businesses to thrive with clarity, confidence, and yes, a whole lot more profit. The draft revolution is flowing strongly. Tune in for fresh ideas that make running a bar or restaurant feel less like guesswork and more like a winning game plan. Cheers to smarter pours!

[…] They have to be below 42, and that's the max. Or they don't even know what the pressure of their system is. Long brush, short draw, they don't know what restriction lines mean. These guys are business men. They aren't draft technicians. They're not physicists. You know, they don't know these things. So our system boils that down to a poor score, a very readable, actionable data points that the owner can say, Hey, our gas is down. I'll call the gas guy. He doesn't have to know anything about gas. He says, no, it's just out of range. And then they can get that fixed and then, you know, you're up and running again. […]
