Read what others have to say about Cooking with Denay:

I am so glad I took this class. I got to meet so many great people. Thank you! I really enjoyed all that I have learned. Denay, I can’t even get into words the many thanks you deserve. You have opened up so many things for me that I didn’t even think I could do. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I am eternally grateful to you for the information you gave me via email regarding the sale of home baked goods at craft and trade shows and at the farmers market. I had no idea this was even an avenue of income for me. We have a flea market in my hometown that is huge!!! I could begin selling there as early as April. The state of Alabama would have this approved by March!!! This settled my business dilemma as well as personal. My husband and I have had our share of arguments on starting my business and establishing a facility. Now I will have a means of earning money and saving towards that kitchen. God Bless you and thank you, thank you, thank you. I will continue keep you posted.

I have gained so much information from this course!  I would have to say one of the first pieces of information that I gained was to scale back on what I was offering.  When we began the course I had just finished making gift baskets for Valentine’s Day and although I enjoyed it and made my co-workers very happy with the end result, I was exhausted!  And with all that I purchased, and the time that it took to make so many of the variations with the amount of orders I had, it wasn’t worth it for me as a business.  I have also gained more confidence in what I will legally be able to do and how to protect my existing customers, potential customers and myself.  Of the many nuggets of information that I gained, I learned of other avenues to get in to the marketplace that I probably would not have considered.  From reading Denay’s comments, I see that you have to think outside the box; always be prepared to promote yourself; and don’t just look for opportunities but create them.
