Stop paying for blind marketing. Pay only for high-intent, personally vetted leads.
There are ~2,000 caterers in NYC, and the majority of catering jobs are often won by companies who can afford to spend thousands on SEO, websites, and ads. That leaves smaller, talented teams competing in the shadows.
My mom is a caterer. She’s a brilliant chef, but like many small business owners, she struggled with social media, web design, and marketing, leaving me as a high schooler to step in to help — building her a basic site and trying to get her noticed.
Because my mom is a caterer, I've learned firsthand how the catering industry, while lucrative, is a tough, seasonal business. How great would it be if she had a constant stream of bookings – all times of the year. It sounds great, but it's only possible with more leads.
And that is exactly what joining GetCateredTable solves. We give you what traditional marketing can’t: A platform to showcase your work for free — and only pay when real, personally vetted, high-intent leads come through.
Forget spending 3–6% of your revenue (The average monthly marketing spend for caterers in NYC) on ads and trying to rank on Google. We handle the outreach, SEO, and traffic — so you can focus on what you do best: creating delicious food and unforgettable events.
When you join GetCateredTable, you’ll select a monthly token budget that fits your business goals.
Catering companies typically spend between 3-6% of their monthly sales revenue on marketing.
We offer token packages (one-time and recurring) for varying business sizes.
Larger companies that are capable of fulfilling more events a month will benefit from more leads and therefore larger token packages. Smaller firms can manage with smaller packages.
Here are some sample plans. These are available as one-time purchases or recurring monthly purchases:
Starter Plan
$300 | 6 tokens
~2-12 leads
~0-3 bookings
Small Business
$400 | 8 tokens
~4-16 leads
~1-4 bookings
Medium Business
$500 | 10 tokens
~5-20 leads
~1-5 bookings
Larger Business
$1,000 | 40 tokens
~10-40 leads
~2-10 bookings
Each lead is priced based on the event’s estimated catering budget, and leads are redeemed using tokens:
Lead's Event Budget and corresponding tokens
*Each token is worth roughly $50 and can generate as much as $5,000 in revenue.
Packages are completely customizable to you. If your company can't support higher budget events or you simply wish to not receive those inquiries, we will cater to your needs and block these leads from inquiring. If you don't want to bother with a $1,000-$2,500 event, no problem. We will block them from inquiring. We are putting your money to use in the most efficient way possible, so you can receive the leads you want.
This model is simple and fair — you only spend tokens when you receive a qualified lead. Bigger events cost more, but even one booking can pay for months of leads. It’s a win-win built to grow your business, not drain it.
The ROI depends on how many leads convert into a booking and the revenue of the event. Even a modest event and a booking only after 5 leads as shown above yields a considerable 500% ROI. Or $5 profit per $1 spent on GetCateredTable.
The margins become much larger as the event size increases ($3,000+) meaning an even greater return on investment. A 100-person party from 5 leads generates an estimated 1200%+ ROI or $12+ profit per $1 spent.
Each event also opens you to a brand new clientele, leading to significantly more word of mouth and possibility for repeat events.
Remember, you're not paying for blind marketing. You're paying for high-intent inquiries; each including an event date, budget, guest count, and research into your food and offerings.
