Cooking Isn’t the Hard Part

Running the Business Is

That’s where I come in. I’ve been behind the scenes of a thriving chef service, running the systems that kept the kitchen humming and the clients happy. I’ll help you avoid the trial-and-error, so you can focus on what you love: cooking.

I Ran the Business Behind a Successful Personal Chef Service for Over a Decade

Hi, I’m Louie Montan. While my wife, Chef Vanda, wowed clients with her culinary talent, I was in the trenches running the business side:

• Drafting contracts and proposals
• Scheduling clients and events
• Handling marketing, social media, and growth strategies

For more than a decade, I kept the gears turning so Chef Vanda could focus on what she loved most — the food. Now I help personal chefs like you build strong, profitable businesses with proven strategies that actually work.
