Joining today is Seek Hannemann, CEO of Seven Brothers Burgers. At Seven Brothers, they believe that the food industry is growing and pushing to faster, quicker, more convenient ways of how customers experience dining out. The human connection that restaurant food once had is getting buried and looked over by this constant race. They are in an effort to build and focus, more than ever, on that connection to bring back that feeling. Seven Brothers is a family focused business and says, "We're not in the burger business. We're in the business of changing lives." When customers come in, they want to make sure they feel wanted, needed, and appreciated.    Key Takeaways: [1:52] - Seven Brothers Burgers started as a family business at one location in Hawaii and eventually opened a second location before moving stateside.
