Hmmm....I just KNOW this is a trick question!!!!\n\nErrrrr..... I KNOW!\n\nFOOD! Food is the MOST important prerequisite for a successful catering business!!!\n\nExperience is worthless without FOOD to survive on long enough to GAIN that experience!\nA Degree in Catering takes brains, and brains need FOOD to work!\nCooking Talent? Try serving Boiled Water Au Gratin as a main entree. People want FOOD!\nEver try training with make-believe FOOD? It looks even more silly than 'air guitar'.\n\nIndeed, the only answer is E ....  Food.\n\nAnd don't feel bad for not including it in your list of possible answers, it's a common mistake most newbies make. Start with food and the rest will sort itself out.\n\n:)

You can check some of these issues if they are important to you. \n\nAsk around and consider their customer service record. What ratings have they received from independent rating organizations? \n\nEvaluate their franchise for consistency. Many Hotel’s are franchised so you’ll want to see how the particular location fits into the Hotel’s chain. Find out how the chain rates this particular property within their organization. \n\nConsider their Hotel policies, are they favorable to you or do they penalize you in some way. \n\nFind out what partnerships they have that could save you money in other areas. Many Hotels have agreements with airlines, rental car or credit card companies. \n\nSee if they credit your frequent flyer or frequent guest programs with points. \n\nCheck the Hotel Chain's locations. Does their Hotel chain have locations where you travel? Do they have international locations? \n\nCheck the individual hotel's location.  Is their airport hotel really close to the airport? \n\nEvaluate their facility. When were the rooms last remodeled? Does it have the types of features you need? How well does it suit your need for the quick overnight stay or the weeklong resort vacation? Do they have business suites or meeting rooms available if you need them? Does the particular Hotel you want to stay in located in a safe part of town? Is any major construction going on in the area around your Hotel’s location? Will there be any large groups staying at the Hotel that could negatively impact your stay? \n\nDo they offer the types of extra services you need? Do they have a concierge, shuttle or laundry service? \n\nCan they honor your special requests? \n\nSee if they offer a Premium or Loyalty Club that feature the services you need. \n\nCheck to see if you belong to any groups that entitle you to a special deal with a particular Hotel. \n\nConsider their rates and the availability of any coupons or discounts. See who offers the best overall deal for your budget.

the right marketing plan is essential for a restaurant... they should list themselves on the web in places like http://www.menuserve.com/ where thousands of people are looking daily!

How about looking at www.confetti.co.uk - although it's initially for wedding information, it shows venue information.  Otherwise try looking at Square Meal on the internet at the venues they have listed.  Top Table might be useful too although I think that might be more for restaurants.  Good luck - hope you find somewhere great and have a brilliant night!

Probably the most important piece of technology for a restaurant would be a Point of Sale computer and software system, though even that isn't necessary to run a restaurant. The "technology", other than the POS and back office computer, aren't really used to run a restaurant, so they're all optional.\n\nTheoretically, you could have:\nPOS computers with touch screens, wireless POS handheld devices, POS software, accounting software, credit card verification machines, back office computers, fax machines, printers, copiers, telephones, drive through monitors/speakers/monitoring equipment, DVR and video surveillance equipment, inventory bar coding tracking and counting devices and software, TVs, stereo equipment, satellite receivers, juke box, NTN gaming consoles and service, video games, Megatouch games, remote TV audio boxes, speaker systems for TV/music/etc\n\nThe list is endless.\n\nBrandon O'Dell\nO'Dell Consulting\nRestaurants / Retail / Bars\nhttp://www.bodellconsulting.com

House delivery of catered foods.\n\nDon't just deliver or make it there. Provide for fresh lunches cocktail stuff like 'sandwiches' or modern varieties of them. \n\nFresh apple pie with cinnamon ice-cream homemade of course.\n\nHome-cooked meals ready to be reheated in a microwave. Day fresh of course. Make it special not just mashed potatoes, gravy and backed ham. Make people have fixed dates like every fridaynight, or even every day, and give them at least 3 months in advance a menu so they can look forward to it.\n\nStart small, think big. Word to mouth must be your advertising though presentation that radiates high quality is a must. Make sure you emphasize you are local talent.. something like 'the aunt next door that can really cook'.

Do you mean you need an event coordinator for some upcoming event? Do you need assistance planning an event?\n\nIf you are going to hold your event in a hotel or convention center, they will have a Sales and Catering Office full of helpful event planner people.\n\nAlso most companies have an event manager, sometimes they are an off shoot of the marketing department who can assist you.\n\nGood luck!

That depends on what type of catering business!  Where it will be located, the hours of operation, the number of employees....... I would suggest first have in your mind and on paper what your goal is, for instance lets say you want to operate a traveling food stand, one that you may drive to construction sites and offer both hot and cold sandwiches and drinks!!  OK, now I would then call other catering businesses in other towns or cities across the US, lets say 5 businesses in 10 cities that gives you a total of 50!!  Let them know why you are calling and where you are located, that way they will not feel threatened in helping you since you would not be their local competition!  Have your questions ready, and hopefully at the end of the 50 calls you will not only have a ballpark figure, you possibly will have gained more insight into being successful!!  Good Luck! Have a Great Day! MB!

You can select the different types of jobs similar to the different departments in the hotel like customer service, event planning, food & beverage jobs which would come easily for you. While others like accounting and sales would still require you to have a background in that field.\n\nYou could also switch to the travel industry and be a travel agent, be part of the airline industry be it the cabin or ground crew.\n\nThere are many opportunities with that course and it's still up to you to decide what you like best and stick to that one department or go all out and aim high by taking up the post of Management In Training in a hotel.
