[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 617443, member: 11791"] You really have to know your target market... demographics like age, income levels, cultural backgrounds. You're not going to make money at this unless you can target people with more income than time (or interest or ability). I don't have money for this, and like Lisa, would not get anyone else to cook for my family anyway. But I do know people who would... some are empty-nesters, others are older, both with money. The first set doesn't have time, and the other set finds it hard to cook well for 1 or 2 and/or are so used to cooking for 1 or 2 that they can't cook for company any more. Small-order catering is fairly popular where we used to live... a custom menu, food prepped ahead and delivered JIT with instructions for final prep (reheat gravy, for example). As a parent with kids... I absolutely refuse hired help. Even IF we could afford it. Because... the kids need to learn how to do all this stuff. Caveat: my kids WILL end up being self-sufficient adults; any parent who is caring for a severely disabled kid is allowed [I]every single break they can get![/I] [/QUOTE]
