Who is this course for…

 

Is this your situation? You know all there is to know about performing a small event or meal prep session, but aren't sure if you're pricing your services at the value you deserve.

  • You may not know how to transition from calculating food costs to understanding how to price a service-only business.
  • You may be unsure how to stop charging by the hour and undervaluing your services.

 

You’re in the right place. This course will give you the knowledge and strategy to price your personal chef services. You have all the culinary skills, but are unsure how to go about pricing at the value you deserve.

 

Who is the course NOT for?

Cooks and chefs wanting to cook out of commercial kitchens. In that case, you would likely be storing inventory and charging similar to restaurant food cost analysis. This course is for those cooking out of client homes.

How to Start Making Money Cooking NOW instead of waiting for a business loan...

Rather than waiting years to gather enough money to rent a commercial kitchen, start your business by working out of your client's kitchens. 

There are no utilities to pay, equipment to purchase, or inventory to store. Show up with the groceries (client pays for them), prep meals or prep the event, then leave behind a bill for service.

As a personal chef, clients pay for groceries. You would be charging a service only fee and this course will show you how to calculate your service fee.

Virginia Stockwell how to become a personal chef

Hey, I'm Virginia!

I've been in catering since 2005 and started my personal chef business in 2012. 

The first and most important lesson I learned in business is pricing with confidence. 

It's time to understand your worth and be confident in your pricing. Confidence will attract your ideal clients...the ones that are willing and able to pay you what you're worth.

What My Clients are Saying...

Karen W.

"Virginia is amazing. My husband and I both work full time and find it challenging to get a healthy meal on the table for our family during the week at a reasonable time. Virginia takes that stress out of our lives. She prepares a huge variety of flavorful and healthy meals. We have not have anything we don’t love. Convenient scheduling, no mess, so easy to work with. Highly recommend!"

Her culinary skills are outstanding, and win will over even the pickiest child, including all 3 of ours.

Carol A.

"Virginia has been cooking for me for over 2 years and I have never had such a good and healthy diet: low salt, low fat, low calorie with no lactose, wheat, red meat or added sugar. She prepares two servings of three dishes each week and they are all delicious, attractive and well spiced. My grocery bills are half of what they were because she she shops for precise quantities. She is a lovely person and it is a delight to have her in my kitchen. Her nutritional knowledge is thoroughly reliable."

Jennifer W.

"Virginia makes delicious, healthy meals for our entire family. She shops for the fresh ingredients and then prepares the meals in our home for us. We are finally able to have fresh, healthy meals on sport practice nights. It is very important to us to have a sit down family dinner together, and we are able to do this because of Virginia. She also is easily able to adjust to any type of food intolerance. When our daughter was diagnosed with celiac, she made all adjustments necessary to insure that all of our meals would work for her. Virginia saves my sanity and keeps us all on a healthy track. We don't know what we would do without her!"

Jill L.

"Virginia has cooked regular meals for our family for 3+ years, and has catered parties for me. I began using her services when I went back to work and no longer had time to shop and cook for my family. Her food is delicious and fresh. My whole family loves it (especially her southwest style dishes). Her menus are thoughtful. She remembers your family favorites and introduces seasonal dishes on her menus. Virginia is professional, prompt, and detail oriented."
