8 Wonderful Tips On How To Be a Successful Caterer In Nigeria


When it comes to self employment in Nigeria, Catering is one of the best options to look into. This tips will help you whether you’re a newbie or a veteran.

THE 8 TIPS:

1. Be realistic
■Catering is not glamourous!
■It’s hard work and long hours.
■When others play, you work.

Try these truths on for size before you invest any money, time or effort into an extension of your
endeavours. Only the strong survive!

2. Cool as a cucumber.
Above all you must be able to handle stress and never appear flustered.
And that’s not just your stress, but also the “freak-out” levels of stress your client might be experiencing. Realise what’s at stake for them. Trust and
powerlessness can be scary emotions for anyone.

3. Deadlines, deadlines, deadlines.
Time is unforgiving in the catering business. Five or ten
minutes leeway is acceptable when serving, but half an
hour late is not, unless the client has pushed back the
clock. Are you reasonably punctual? Examine your
ability to deliver in a timely manner.

4. Find your own niche!
Remember there are many categories of catering; from
Cakes and barbecue to drinks and so on.
Establish your own area of excellence and interest.
Something you enjoy, something that makes your
product different.
If successful, you’ll be making lots of it!

5. Listen to your client.
Naturally your thoughts and suggestions are what they are looking for, but most clients have some preconceived ideas regards their event. Prize these out.
They’ll provide you with guidance and insights. It’s the client you’re trying to please.

6. Start early.
Catering is like Christmas. If you leave it until the last minute, you’ll wish you’d started sooner. Many things can be organized in advance such as rentals and the work force.
Over time, you’ll become familiar with the natural sequence. Until then, make lots of lists.

7. Be Friendly and flexible.

8. Belle of the Ball.
Clients love to know they have thrown a social smash. Share some of the comments and
compliments that came your way.

Part of the point is to glow in the glorious aftermath of
the event – and that goes for you too!
