People like food. It’s a constant on par with death and taxes (but much more fun to think about). People’s love of food can lead them to do many things, and if you need to herd a large group of people (host an event), you can use this fact to your advantage. Providing people with food calms them down, grabs their attention, and puts you in control. Food is your opportunity to turn your next meeting or event into a success story. By choosing the right caterer, you can appease the masses as you pitch your idea, host your bridal shower, or sell your home. Yes, food has the power to move real estate.

When People Haven’t Eaten, They Get Distracted

At some point in your life, you’ve gotten hangry. You may have skipped breakfast, you may have forgotten to grab lunch — people get busy; it’s understandable. You know what it feels like to get distracted and angry because you haven’t eaten. Now put yourself in the shoes of an attendee at your meeting or event. If you event falls over a typical meal time (and even if it doesn’t), you have to anticipate people becoming distracted. The last thing you want while you’re trying to plan a party or talk about sales numbers is for your audience to turn into a voracious mob of hungry monsters.

Catering Gives You Control During Your Next Event

You can take back control during your next event with catering. Providing food for your attendees turns monsters back into attentive guests. Having food present — even if people don’t partake — removes a distraction from the room and restores focus on what’s really important: Whatever it is you’re actually doing. Consider catering your next event to eliminate the possibility of a mid-meeting rebellion.

Be Sure You Get a Variety of Options for Your Catered Event

Once you decide to cater your event, you need to decide on a caterer to make it all happen. Choosing a caterer with a variety of options is the best call. You never know who will have a food allergy or intolerance, so you need to be as accommodating as possible. Choosing fresh, light options is also preferred. If you provide your audience with barbeque, they will become very excited and then immediately very tired. Sleeping through a meeting is no good.
