Shawn Walchef is the founder of Cali BBQ Media, host of the Digital Hospitality podcast, a business coach, and a proud dad. Since opening Cali BBQ in 2008, he has grown his San Diego restaurant and media company into a global brand using digital tools and smartphone storytelling.

Opening his restaurant during the Great Recession, Shawn learned to use the power of the Internet to stay in business. During the Pandemic, Cali BBQ developed a scalable growth plan that is three times more profitable than the traditional full-service restaurant model. Now, Shawn helps content leaders implement podcasting and digital media to grow their own businesses.
