More cake bookings might mean doing things that feel uncomfortable.

Showing your face. Starting conversations. Following up. Talking about your prices. Asking for the booking.

But if nothing changes, next year’s diary won’t either.

You have ghosted them!!

Do you have a proper system in place to ensure you are following up with potential cake customers?

This one is good to map out if you haven't already done so, and set yourself some templates up

If you want a proper fix for this, the 6 week 1:1 Cake Business Breakthrough covers all of this and more.

Every cake business has different costs, different skill levels, different overheads and a different ideal client.

Copying someone else's price list tells you nothing about what your cakes need to cost.

It just keeps you stuck in a race to the bottom with people whose business looks nothing like yours.

My Free Cake Pricing Calculator works out your numbers, not someone else's, so you can price with confidence.

Wedding cake delivery day.

My son in the passenger seat, tiered cake in the boot, me driving like I am transporting something extremely fragile. Which I am. 😂

On the way home he asked me how much I charged for it.

I told him. And then I thought about it properly myself. Days of work. The skill it took years to build. The planning, the sugar flowers.

Actually, when you say it out loud to a nine year old, it makes you think.

Your time has value. Your skill has value. Price accordingly.

What they charge has nothing to do with what you should charge.

Stop asking other cake makers what they charge.

I know why you do it. It feels like useful information. A sense check. A way of making sure you are not wildly off.

But their price is built on their costs, their overheads, their experience, and what they need to earn. None of which is yours.

Using their price as your benchmark is like using someone else's shoe size to buy your own shoes. It might fit. It probably will not.

Work out your own costs. Charge accordingly. That is the only number that matters.

Every cake business has quiet periods. The ones that survive them are the ones that planned for them.

The slow month is not a sign your business is failing.

Every cake business has quiet periods. The odd random month where enquiries just dry up.

The cake makers who panic are the ones who had no visibility of it coming. The ones who stay calm are the ones who track their numbers, know their pipeline, and planned for the quiet spell before it arrived.

Know your numbers. Know your slow months. Plan accordingly.

A quiet month is only a crisis if it surprises you.

which are your quieter months?
