Join Jeremy and Olga Lopategui where they talk about restaurant loyalty and how to maximize your brand message.
After 15 years in brand marketing and international franchise marketing at Pizza Hut, KFC and TGI Fridays, Olga noticed that restaurant chains were getting proficient at collecting customer data, yet the skill of using that data for marketing seemed to be lacking in many organizations. Restaurant Loyalty Specialists, a boutique loyalty consulting firm, was founded right then.
We offer expertise in Loyalty and CRM for restaurant chains. The key principle is simple: find out what your guests already like, then give them more of that – at scale – to drive sales. Our clients range from 20 to over 800 locations. We work with any modern loyalty and CRM platforms, although most clients utilize Punchh, Paytronix, or Personica.
Olga was born in Moscow, Russia, and has lived and worked in Europe, Asia, and the US in the course of her career. She holds a Harvard MBA and a Georgetown LLM.

Join Jeremy and Founder of Veggie Grill T.K Pillan where they talk about the shift from technology startup to becoming the largest plant-based chain in the country. In 2006, investor partners T.K. Pillan and Kevin Boylan began looking for the next big restaurant idea. Around the same time, the duo were personally experiencing the tremendous health benefits of a plant-based diet and were becoming more informed about the inhumane and unsustainable factory farming methods used to produce meat and dairy products. So, driven to take a stand and change American food culture for the better, the two teamed up with culinary expert Ray White to start Veggie Grill, a vegan restaurant based in Irvine, California. Today, as the largest plant-based QSR restaurant chain with 35 restaurants and 700+ team members across the country, Veggie Grill has empowered millions of customers to not only try vegan food, but to crave it. While all locations have been strictly corporate-owned up until now, the Veggie Grill brand is officially launching its franchise opportunity and giving entrepreneurs the opportunity to join the runaway leader in the exciting plant-based movement. Since being founded in 2006, Veggie Grill has expanded to include locations in California, Oregon, Washington, Illinois, Massachusetts and New York City.
