Hey there food industry pals, Want to make money? Want lasting success? Want value from your food products? (Yes, yes, and yes!) Let's chat about HORECA connections. In case you're not familiar, HORECA means Hotels, Restaurants & Catering. Your relationships with these folks are crucial. They're the ones putting your products in front of customers. Think:  - The restaurant owner adding your dish to the menu. - The hotel manager stocking up their kitchen with your goods. - The caterer picking your product for events. Don't treat these connections as one-time deals. Nurture them. Go beyond just selling. Build rapport, be their partner. Ask for input on new ideas. Team up on menu planning. Give them tools to market your goods. Why bother? Because strong HORECA bonds mean: - More sales - More connections - More people knowing your brand So, give your HORECA relationships some attention. #horeca #sales #networking

You’re probably wondering what sushi has to do with sales 🍣 This weekend my husband and I went out for sushi. Typically this place is pretty busy and it takes about 45 minutes to wait for a table but we have a little strategy. The bar seats are always open. So we walked in and low and behold, there were two seats available at the bar. So we asked the guy working at the reception desk if we could snag them. Very quickly he barked at us and said “no those are for reservations only!” We were so confused, did they change their policy? Okay, no problem we can wait. After standing there for 5 minutes there’s a new guy at the reception desk, and he looks like the manager. A couple walks in and says “hey can we just sit at the bar?” And the manager says yep help yourself. We were so shocked we started to giggle. Two more seats opened up at the bar a minute later, so we asked “can we just sit at the bar?” And it worked great. Bottom Line: it’s not a no, you’re just not talking to the right person. #salestips #sales #skipstips

"I want to get my catering sales to $XX, how many potential customers do I need?" 300? 400? To build steady catering sales, over time, you MUST build a solid foundation of potential clients in your trade area. That means, you must secure those 10, 20, and 30 person orders. Those are the customers that order with frequency all year long. And yes, you may need relationships with 300 or 400 of them in your trade area -- but that's the key to unlocking long-term sales. Those smaller orders are insanely valuable. Those are the customers that won't disrupt your operations. Those are the customers that make your labor more efficient... Those are the customers that will be loyal, several times each year... I hear so many restaurants turn their noses up at small orders. And I just don't get it. I know we think we all want the single 200-person order, but give me the ten 20-person orders, ALL DAY LONG.... Because those orders provide me the security I need to continue to grow my business, year after year.

Customers are your best 'sales reps' 💰 No amount of marketing or money spent elsewhere can do for you what a customer referral can. Wineries (or any business in hospitality) should for this very reason not neglect the in-person experience, i.e Tasting Rooms. Simple, sustainable ways to do this are: - Knowledgeable and friendly staff 👨🍳 (knowledge can be taught, but friendliness is a personal trait. Choose staff wisely.) - Convenient services 🏪 (make it easy for the customer to purchase wines, use facilities etc.) - Private tastings 🍷 (people prefer people, always have the option of private tastings and make the standard tasting 'more' personal.) If you could add more, what would it be?
