My First Catering Client

This was *my* first catering client.

I sent her the quote for the event. I knew what I was doing when it came to pricing an event and making a profit. I followed the steps (more on that later).

The quote was for $1,300 with $500 up front deposit.

A backyard cookout with beverages and all the works for up to 75 people. I didn’t know if she would accept the offer or laugh me away. But, to my surprise she accepted and gave me the deposit.

All said and done I spent $400 on the event. I walked with about $900 in my pocket for less than a couple hours a day’s work. 

But I followed the steps….

You see, I started as an *underpaid* busboy at a local diner…

Got promoted to *underpaid* line cook (that was a *lot* of fun!). 

It was so much fun that I decided to go to culinary school… the CIA.

After graduation I got a job as an *underpaid* salad station cook (see a trend?)

I quickly rose the ranks. I was determined to do something that scared me every day to get to the top. For one, because I wanted to be the Executive Chef… and second…. 

I had student loans to pay!

I did become Sous Chef of this $10mil/year restaurant and eventually the *underpaid* Chef de Cuisine. There was no “Executive Chef” …. Probably because that title requires more pay? I don’t know.

My daughter grew to 1 years old during my tenure at the top of this restaurant.

I lived in an in-law apartment and my girlfriend was not having the easiest time with me being absent all the time at work or absent mentally when I was at home, exhausted.

I knew what had to be done.. I needed to make a change.

I found a fierce secret to start creating better wealth and life quality for myself and my young family. 

I started to go out in search of the most profitable type of business in the hospitality field.

The private catering business.

I followed the 5 steps and was wildly successful…

Without: 

1. Any Starting Capital
2. Any staff
3. A Professional kitchen. 

I know what you’re thinking…

*You*, a successful, highly paid caterer? Some dream right?

But I did it… and I will reveal to you how you can as well.

The results of my first job described earlier was well above my weekly salary as the chef of this restaurant. 

And…

The jobs that followed only got bigger and better.

As a solo caterer -just starting out- (after the first job above) I’ve catered:

*a 100 person turkey dinner on a campground.

*a 90 person engagement party for the son of a US Senator.

*a 70 person corporate backyard picnic.

*a 50 person 70th birthday party….

And that was just in the first couple months of me reaching out and getting clients. 

I was still working full time…

but I was taking in 4-figures more per month in income!

All of these jobs were executed without the use of a leased or purchased professional kitchen. 

I never bought equipment or food with my own money…I used the money from the deposit on each event.

And, I never got into conflict with my current employer because I only chose the jobs that worked best for me.

And…

I got to be with my family more because I wasn’t so financially strapped to work for that demanding restaurant anymore.

But I followed the steps….

While everyone else continues to slave away in someone else’s kitchen I quietly focused on the 5 steps.

I’ve discovered how to start a highly profitable catering business the easy way, from nothing! (even as a side job).
