    A Big Night

    Tonight is the night that Cafe Evoke Catering will be at the Bogert Farmers Market. This event is in Bozeman and begins at 5:00 pm. If you are around and in the area, come see us!

    It has been a slow week with no emails or phone calls about our services. I am hoping that tonight's event sparks some calls. Next week begins my new work schedule which allows me to work on my own business from 2:00 pm on every day. While I will be taking a blow financially by not having a full time pay check, I will be able to build the catering business and get information about what we do to people.

    I heard of a realtors event that happens each Thursday where 800 people are invited. This would be a great time to service coffee and show people what we do. I am trying to get in touch with the people that are in charge to see if they would be interested in having Cafe Evoke Catering come and serve this meeting.

    We are coming on up our 7th weekend of business. Although we have not had a chance to serve in that many events yet, I still feel that we are doing things right and that if we continue to push our marketing materials and make phone calls, business will come. We are scheduled for a big event in February at the Museum of the Rockies called the Black Tie Ball. This will be really fun for us -- when it gets here. We also have at least one wedding for next summer already.

    You have to keep pushing. Business will not just come. The more we can get out there and push our name and service, the better it will turn out for us.

    Best of luck tonight!

    Generating sales leads takes time, although as you do more events you will gain traction and referrals will start to generate from the events you hold. It takes time but you are in a great position!

    Rock on!

    Thanks Dan.

    It has been a rough trip so far but it is worth all of the work!

    I will let everyone know how it goes.

    I hope the event went well for you. Years from now you will recall with fondness the early struggles of starting a business. Persistance pays. Sense of urgency pays. Good luck to you.

    Hi Jim,

    Thanks for your comment. We are setting the ground work for the future right now and it is not always easy. I think you are absolutely right about looking back.

    I will report on the event a bit later today.

    Thank you again for your support.
