“Glad you’re still in business!”

With the economy showing glimpses of improvement, people are starting to come out to play. The phone is ringing a little more, the inbox is filling up a little faster, and we are hearing a lot of comments like “Glad you’re still in business!” For the record, so are we! This is not to say that the challenging times are behind us, but it is a testament to the fact that we have made it this far.
It makes us wonder how many businesses are experiencing the same thing. We all put on our best “networking” faces and pound the pavement during tough times. It is only in the reflective times that we are honest with ourselves about what it takes to survive as a business right now. Studies have shown that companies that innovate in leaner times are miles ahead of the competition when the “milk and honey” is flowing again.
Surround yourselves with movers and shakers! Here at Three Chicks Catering, we are glad you’re still in business!

Edutainment

Edutainment is a trend that is rocking the events industry.  Last weekend, we held an "Iron Chef" competition at our venue.  People want an experience, great food, great people and to go home with a little more knowledge than they showed up with.  Consider a similar event next time you are planning a birthday party, thank you gift or Mother/Father's Day present.

Too Busy to Blog!

I read somewhere that the only acceptable excuse for not keeping up with your social media outlets is that you are too busy with work. That has certainly been the case around the Three Chicks Catering kitchen. Summer is always the busiest season for the events industry and 2009 is no exception. This is a double edged sword, however, because people are expecting more for less. Why shouldn’t they? Society has reached a point where they say “I want transparency, value, and quality.” At Three Chicks, we say “we can do that!” With pages on Facebook, Twitter, and Blogger, we respond to the demand for transparency. Get to know us! Love us! Friend us! Fan us! Follow us! The most exciting part of being transparent is the doors it opens up for new relationships with other like minded companies. Kieranslist.com, In House Communications, RE Bar Camp, Association of Bridal Consultants and National Association of Catering Executives to name a few. There is a supportive community of bloggers, tweeple and facebookers out there navigating online territory together.
Because of the pace we are keeping in the kitchen, the pace of our social media has slowed a bit. Isn’t that the whole point? If your social media campaigns produce so much return that you find yourself “behind” on your status updates… you are doing well! In fact, I am typing this post while taking a Sunday drive to Portland. Don’t worry, I am not driving.
