    Questions: Everything I can find online advises that a license, permit, or certification is not required in Michigan.

    • @MarketingFoodOnline
      @MarketingFoodOnline  7 місяців тому

      when it comes to catering this is not allowed cottage foods are normally not time or temp sensitive foods catering involves perishable food items : Many types of non-perishable foods are allowed, and producers can sell directly to consumers at most sales venues.
      It is very easy to start a cottage food business, since no license or inspection from the ag department is needed.
      However, sales are limited to $25,000 per year, and indirect sales (through retail stores, grocery stores, online, etc) are not allowed.

    • @MarketingFoodOnline
      @MarketingFoodOnline  6 місяців тому

      if this is a catering business normally yes each county you are transacting in or doing business in would require this, BUT I would reach out to the county you are mentioning and ask them if a license is needed.

    • @MarketingFoodOnline
      @MarketingFoodOnline  6 років тому +7

      Hey Darius I would recommend a great simple way to get some "experience" is to through a few get-togethers at you home or at a friends house and YOU make the full meal create a menu for the get-together and get some experience with the entire process. Once it is over get feedback from everyone to see what they think. Ask them to be honest about the whole meal , presentation, etc. Then let them know your plans and tell them all to tell their co-workers etc ( pass the word along) and then look into a commercial kitchen, even tell local businesses you frequent, banks, grocery stores, businesses near your work etc.

    Great advice! I’m doing empanadas & cookies and other small things. To build clients, would you think it’s a good idea to go around to businesses and offer sample trays with a menu? I’m stuck now. I’ve built a Facebook page, purchased a website but do not know how to set it up. So I am at lost! We take samples to work , husbands work.. people have ordered but it isn’t a consistent thing.

    • @MarketingFoodOnline

      Hey Maida
      GREAT first steps....I know when I started I was in Your shoes. A couple questions are you selling the empanadas from home or a commercial kitchen? and cookies and what other kinds of items are you making? This will give me an idea of how I can direct your next steps ...Damian

    • @ensolicz5007
      @ensolicz5007 5 років тому

      Marketing Food Online , Thanks Damien. So I’m currently doing the Empanadas from a commercial Kitchen, cakes and cookies from home. We do other foods such as mini party size Empanadas, meat pastries, guava pastries, etc those we haven’t gotten orders for yet. We’ve got a menu, Facebook page, website that needs to be built, just stuck on being able to get clients. At this point I think I’m going to start offering to cater parties so I can get my name out there.

    I am so glad I came across your Channel!! I really need some help on starting a baking business online. I live in Alabama, and under the cottage law I can sell at home. However, I want to bring my baking business and introduce it to the world . Will I still need a commercial kitchen, and if so how do I locate one? Can you sell online and then connect with a commercial kitchen later?

      Hey Kenny
      Thanks for watching and asking. Yes in some states this is fine you would need to find out specifically in your state and city. There are many states that allow this. You can use a "food truck" style vehicle and this would be used to transport the food to the event, but make sure the CITY allows this. Damian
