Evan Sledge

Raising Cane's

Todd Graves of Raising Cane's joins fellow founders on David Burmeister's Advice Line to share hard-won lessons on scaling without losing soul. Three callers face growth dilemmas: Evan Sledge wrestles with scaling Whiskey Morning Coffee without sacrificing quality, Shane Lyons looks to expand Vesti while staying true to its mission, and Todd Graves reveals how Cane's built a billion-dollar chain by refusing to compromise on chicken, sauce, and culture. Each walks away with practical strategies for growing without selling out. This masterclass in disciplined expansion comes from a founder who turned one Baton Rouge chicken finger joint into 1,500+ locations.
