You're listening to Bardtenders! In this episode of "The Mixing Glass", Danny Posey discusses the struggle and strategies for success in working in small U.S. markets. Danny also talks about ways to connect with other professionals in the hospitality industry to help grow your career and advance your education!
Danny Posey has been in the hospitality industry for 17. Danny started his journey in the industry working at a big corporate chain restaurant and since then has worked as a server, bartender, beverage director, manager, and training lead. Danny has always loved bartending and has recently been back behind the sticks making cocktails and pouring libations for guests in Rogers, Arkansas.
Danny has also entered many cocktail competitions thanks to our friends at Chilled Magazine; He hasn't placed yet, but he looks at these competitions as learning opportunities to fine-tune his skills and learn new techniques.
NW Arkansas is a small market, with limited networking and educational opportunities for the industry (for now…) so for the last two years Danny has been trying to attend every possible opportunity out of state (and even one international trip) he can find, including Bar & Restaurant Expo, BCB, Tales, Portland Cocktail Week, etc. Danny has also been working with Chilled Media to build an established Chilled 100 group in Arkansas to help connect people and grow their abilities as well as hoping to reignite a USBG chapter.
You can find Danny at Local Lime in Rogers, AR, a Baja-Cali mex concept that uses fresh, local ingredients both in the kitchen and behind the bar where Danny is the bar manager and runs the beverage program there. You can also find Danny on social media at @drinkwithdanny
