Work From Home - Catering | 040

So you think catering might make a good home based business. Your experience so far has been the glitz and glamor of an event, but have you really considered the reality of going into the kitchen and watching the food preparation, or the work involved in the decoration of the banquet room? Have you had to call people to put together 60 servers for serving the food? Putting together an event takes a lot of skill and hard work. The manager of a catering company works hard to put a successful event together.

Ordering the food to be prepared is quite an operation. Who designs the menu? After the menu is decided, who decides what food to order and where to order all the different foods? Will you have a chef and a food and beverage coordinator? Or will you do it yourself? Before committing yourself to this kind of home based business, it might be wise to go to work for a caterer. Work in all phases of the job. Most people would not like it. It is very demanding work and being less than perfect and energetic is not acceptable. Can you decorate and set a banquet room? A well set and decorated banquet takes a lot of experience. Is the crystal sparkling? What about the silverware, is it spotless?

The event is over and the kitchen and banquet room is a mess. Who does the clean up? Believe me, the job can be a mess and tremendous. It is the caterers job to organize the clean up event. The hall, the kitchen, the home, or where ever the event was held must be left in pristine condition. Dishes must be washed, put away, tables and chairs must be cleaned and reorganized or stored. You must coordinate the clean up work with the custodian or the home owner. If you do a good job, believe me the tips will be great. If you don’t do a good job, you may find yourself out of your home based business.

A well organized catering job will go like clock work and will be really rewarding for all concerned. However there are other ways of to earn money in a home based business. A new approach to developing a home based business is to buy customers instead of leads. This is for real and really working.
