Brock Markarian

Brock Markarian - operator and builder.

I spent 5 years as General Manager of a bar in San Bernardino County (Cosmos Taverna). Schedules, inventory, recipe costing, training bartenders on pour cost, running tip pools, P&L oversight, every operations math problem a small restaurant runs into.

Out of that I built restaurantcalcs.com — 16 free restaurant operations calculators. Food cost, labor, tip pool, recipe cost, prime cost, break-even, menu pricing, pour cost, and more. No signup, no email gate, no remarketing pixel. Built on Astro plus Cloudflare Workers.

I also run Marketing 760, a small agency helping local trades in the High Desert and Inland Empire (landscaping, turf, HVAC, restaurants) rank on Google and AI search engines.
