Sean Finter's
Bar & Restaurant
Mastermind
Two and a half days of hands-on, working sessions built for bar and restaurant owners ready to take back control of their business, their team, and their margins.
Not a seminar.
A working session.
This isn't a keynote you sleep through. The 2.5-Day Mastermind is a small-group, sleeves-rolled-up workshop designed to solve real problems in your real business — from labor and scheduling to profitability and leadership culture.

Real Results from Real Owners
The principals & strategies I've learned from Sean's Masterminds and implemented have made a profound impact on my business.
I didn't know what to expect when I first joined Sean's mastermind, but it turned out to be exactly what I needed. The insights and connections I gained there continue to influence how I approach my business today.
What stands out most about working with Sean is how his advice stays with you. Even years later, I find myself reflecting on his guidance during tough decisions and it has consistently helped me steer my business in the right direction.
Working with Sean has been essential for us to distill our philosophy and culture and install critical systems.
Every time I attend one of Sean's events, I walk away with new insights that I can immediately apply to my business. His ability to bring people together and foster a sense of shared learning is truly unique.
The impact Sean's events had on me was more than just professional—it was personal. I learned how to let go of stress, focus on building a culture I love, and work with people who inspire me every day. This mastermind was exactly what I needed to find balance again.

Getting Here & Getting Ready
59 Franklin Street, Annapolis, MD 21401
All sessions take place at Franklin House in the heart of downtown Annapolis. The venue is walking distance from all recommended hotels.
We are not holding an official room block this year — guests are free to choose the hotel that best fits their preferences and budget. Book early — rates change and rooms fill fast around this time of year.
Great value in the heart of downtown. Easy access to restaurants, coffee, and the waterfront.
A favorite among past attendees. Boutique-style with a lively atmosphere and central location.
Historic Annapolis charm right in the center of downtown. One of the closest hotels to the venue.
Modern full-service hotel with larger rooms, fitness center, and easy parking access.
Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport is the closest and easiest option. Annapolis is approximately 30–40 minutes by car (about 27 miles). Straightforward drive with minimal traffic concerns. Rideshare, rental car, and shuttle options all available.
Reagan National is approximately 45–75 minutes from Annapolis (about 35 miles), but traffic out of DC — especially during rush hour — can add significant time. If flying into Reagan, plan accordingly and allow extra time for your arrival day transfer.
Dulles is approximately 60–90 minutes from Annapolis (about 55 miles), depending heavily on traffic. The route passes through or around the DC metro area and can be significantly delayed during peak hours. Dulles is best used when fare savings justify the longer, less predictable drive.
