The Secret To Creating A Great Business Plan for Your Catering Business

There is just one word:  Success.  Demonstrate your success. 

Your success as a chef is important, but your success as a business person is even more important.  So ... how do you prove to a reluctant banker that you are a successful caterer?  Here are few ways ...

Your prior successes.  If you've been with this bank for a while, and they have seen your business grow, you are a loooong way ahead of the game.
Your planning successes.  What -- exactly -- do you have planned for this business?  This is where a strong business plan and strong marketing plan come into play.
Your referrals.  Present a list of prior clients.  The stronger the names on the list, the stronger your successes are.

Note that nowhere on this list is a listing of credentials, or successes in other businesses.  In truth, they don't matter a whole lot.  What the banker needs to know is that you can be successful NOW and in THIS BUSINESS.  Key your whole business plan to that angle.

There is one business plan software package that we know that will help you accomplish this:

CUSTOMER REVIEWS

starsOverall rating: (4.9 out of 59 reviews).  Here's a sampling:

Leila Milner. "We've been setting up luaus for friends for years, but I hadn't considered it as a real business until I ran across your website.  But it is all there, the referrals, the beaches, the clients, the suppliers.  Maybe we won't retire just yet."

Big Dan.  ""A Texas barbeque is a time honored tradition.  And nobody does it better than Big Dan (sorry for the commercial, but it is true).  We have more people wanting barbeques than we can handle, so I guess it is time to do some hiring and see how far the business can go.  We're riding high!"

Andrew Hines.  "I found my niche in catering, not in restaurant work.  But I've got a reputation from the restaurant work that will take me far.  This is why I am creating this truly excellent catering service in Idaho.  And your catering business plan is helping me to get there."

Sylvia Clyburn (Austin, TX). "A growing area like this is going to have a great need for a top drawer caterer for business events and special occasions, so here we go!  We've done smaller events for many years, but now we are ready to grow into the big catering for parties and conventions.  Glad we found your catering business plan book."

Miss Piggy for catering business plan quote

Artichokes are just plain annoying.  After all the trouble you go to, you get about as much actual "food" out of eating an artichoke as you would from licking thirty or forty postage stamps.
MISS PIGGY, who knows a lot (but not all) about food
