Catering Business Startup Success

Do you love food?

Do you enjoy cooking for others?

Are you looking for a way to turn that love of cuisine into something profitable?

Look no further than the catering industry! This book will tell you everything you need to know to start, run, and grow your own catering business—even if you have never before ventured into business for yourself!

With middle age and a need for extra income, catering has gotten me through some financially tough times, earned me some good money, and made me some close friends in the process.

I will discuss what it takes to be a caterer on a part or full-time basis; the choice is yours. After listening to this book, you should fully understand the nuances of the business, including how to get started, what supplies you need, costs for those items necessary to get your new and exciting catering business up and running, how to brand and market your new catering business, and much more.

Being a caterer is not just about cooking. In this book, I will address the separate areas that, when considered together, make up the characteristics of being an exceptional caterer. It is also more than just producing a birthday party for little Sally by buying some balloons, serving cake and ice cream, and cleaning up afterward. It is much more intricate than that.

In this book, I will teach you everything you need to know to begin a catering business:

  • Why you should consider the catering industry
  • The history and evolution of catering
  • Some real talk about choosing to become a caterer
  • How to determine what your client needs
  • How to run the business once you’ve started
  • Advice on being an effective boss for your business
  • What software to utilize
  • How to negotiate contracts
  • A look at a sample contract
  • Why you should hire staff and how to handle that
  • What your team member job descriptions should be
  • How to find funding for your business
  • What services you might offer as you define your business
