amazing video, as always!!! you're a gift from god!!!!

Hi Chef, can you go through an example menu and how you go through it on a cook day?

I am doing a private chef for a family of 3, but I will be preparing their food from my home, and I will be using their equipment. I will deliver once a week ? Is this OK

I’m so glad i stumbled onto your channel!! Being a personal chef has been a lifelong dream of mine and with your help it genuinely feels very attainable. Thanks for what you do 🧡

A GREAT VIDEO I PLAN NEXT YR TO BUY MY PROPERTY IN NORTH IDAHO AND STARTING MY PERSONAL CHEF BUSINESS THANKS

Thank you for knowing your worth and charging for the guide now.

thank you so much for your insight! How important is it to specialize in one area, for example, seniors, special diets, busy moms, etc. Do you have to do a separate business plan for each area stating marketing etc?

this is by far the most comprehensive and complete video i've watched on literally any topic. PERFECT video 100/10. information, eloquence, set, quality, everything was done perfectly

Thank for you this... I'm looking to kick off my career as a private Chef, and I can't say it's not been tinged with momentary confusion. I'm still looking for answers and hope I find them. Happy to subscribe, by the way.

Us chefs really need this

Very helpful informations, thank u so much

At the time of watching this which is November 2024, the title says what equipment does a personal chef need. I think the wrong title is on this video

Well said, you are absolutely correct about all of these! Helpful video!

Supplies. Personally, I'm starting with pots and pans i feel comfortable using. I have a mix of stainless steel, enameled cast iron and hybrid pans like hexclad. I bought alot of it from Facebook market brand new. I also have 2 knifes, mixing bowls, utensils and meat thermometer from a restaurant/kitchen supply store in my area. Start up money. I'm a 24 year old living with my parents. I just started making 14$ an hour at my regular job. My credit score wasn't quite good enough to get any type of loan so I'm paying everything out of pocket. It's taking some time but I'm slowly building my supplies and getting in the practice I need to get more confident. Websites. I have a Facebook and Instagram page. I'm not used to talking to a camera so tiktok is slowly becoming a considered option for me to have. It's also a good outlet to make some income on as well. It will be a year that I've been working on this with the knowledge and money I do have. I'm hopeful and I'm excited on my time to shine ✨️ 😌

real.

Another day excellent video chef Shelley! Thank you! Personal chef business to the win!! Thinking of also Including a side dog treat business (with my teens) and good way to help them take off with it.

Watched your video, checked out the Copy Me That and am OBSESSED. I got the lifetime membership, amazing and so worth it. Thank you, I look forward to looking more into all of your videos.

I am a personal chef, but I'm unsure how to market myself effectively in this field. My goal is to focus more on being a personal chef by 2025. In the meantime, I run a food spot, but I want to grow my personal chef services to increase my income and reduce reliance on the food spot.

Very informative video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us:)

Im excited to be able to attend my first monthly group call next week. I've learned so much from the archived videos and these You tube vidoes. I really appreciate it! Im definitely looking at meal prep, but i am having imposter syndrome and i also am in an area that regularly scheduled customers will be a challenge. But i know ill figure it out!❤

Thanks for this saved me guessing how to cut them. Funny and educational. Great Video !

This is perfect. Thank you for this 💃💃

Do you have a video on storage after cooking and how to give instructions to them for warming it back up

I'm curious if this has any barring in Maine?

Chef, where can I find your blog on how you started this journey?😊

Excellent tips chef Shelley thank you!

Great great information! Thank you so much for taking the time and being honest about this bussiness.

What is the difference between my clients kitchens and my kitchen?

The issue I'm having is I don't want to cook in other people's kitchens. I would like to work omena weekly menu with them, prepare it in my kitchen and take it to their home. I don't want to do shopping for only them. If I have a client that wants Salisbury Steaks for one of their meals. I go to the store and I see five pound packages of ground beef are on sale. I would like to buy that five pound package and freeze it and have it available for my next client that wants Salisbury Steak or if I need ground beef because someone wants Lasagna Bolognese. I can go straight to my freezer. I want to have my own stocked pantry I can just pull from. With all that being said. Getting that started is hard.

A lot to do to become a personal chef google great idea I hope I am successful thank you

Great video! Thanks❤

Great information. Thanks

Just a heads up, there's no video playing. It's just a black screen

I don't know if I'm wholly this but I definitely have the planner gene. I have cooked for others in many situations. I've worked as a cooking teacher, a food photographer and most recently cooking for people with difficult dietary restrictions due to illness. I think as a planner I can make the most $ and serve the most people with my ability to plan, prep and multitask. As an assistant I've been told I am good at figuring out what chef needs next. So yeah, not sure what I should do to be more successful as a personal cook for others. I think I like the variety and the challenge of the niche of dietary restrictions because it's fun and challenging to learn how to cook and bake gluten free or use no oil in cooking. That to me is fun. So what kind of cook do you think I am?

This was helpful❤! I love howneasy copy me that is!

Hello can you be my mentor ?

Type A right here lol I'll call you when something goes wrong lol!

Im a mad scientist and the magician. I'm going to really struggle with sticking to a recipe, let alone make a recipe and write it down. 😂

Fantastic video, thank you so much!

Absolutely excellent video, and excellent channel. I just started following and I'm going to go through and watch them all. I've been a chef for a long time, and so far you are spot-on 👍 Great stuff, thanks for making it!

Your not an idiot 😅

If some quit you'll have fewer but higher paying customers (which is a good goal to have)

Jm curious as tonwhat things u have found the moat necessary to take to the clients house. Which tools and how do u package the food for most peoples fridge. Do u travel with irh plastic wear? Do you prefer to use disposables? That sort of thing. I know it's all specific to the customer, but what's the most typical way that clients prefer?

Id like an idea of the different ways to pack and lavel and leave instructions for how to reheat all the dishes.

Omg! Are you still offering this checklist? Im in such a sweet spot right now where im am very often in lroximity to mullionaires, but im full of anxiety because i needed to k ow where to start.

Crazy helpful! And, actually makes me a little more excited than scared. 😂

my problem is the stoves in VA are mostly electric :( . I don't like it but I make do!

I always used to watch cooking shows , mainly master chef junior , it’s amazing how much their little bodies can cook up so much food. Always is intrigued by cooking shows . I took culinary arts classes in highscool, I loved it , it was very fun . I want to become a private chef , any tips ? Advice ?

Chef Shelley, you are truly inspiring and such a motivational speaker! I love your transparency and the way you openly share your knowledge, helping all of us learn from your personal experiences 👩‍🍳

Your videos seem to come at the right time. 😊. I'm at the point where I'm getting offers for small catering 30 people and smaller. It's a lot of work, but I'm still having fun doing it. Getting closer every day to taking the business plunge.
