Maybe I have been watching too much T.V.

But I have noticed lately that there are now supposedly so called "experts" who help failing bars (Bar Rescue) , restaurants (Restaurant Impossible) and now car dealers (Car Lot Rescue) from going out of business.

In addition to preventing them from failing, they do it in a very short time after being called in - two days in Resturant Impossible.

Has anyone known any business owner who has called any of these people and if so, what were the results?

Watching them may be a better use of your time instead of thinking about flying a golf cart.

Like 99% of all the REALITY shows they're TOTALLY scripted to show what the producer wants to be seen.
