Hi everyone! I’m Chef Victoria, owner of Scratch Crafted Dining in Columbus, Ohio. I’m a private chef specializing in curated in-home dining experiences, from intimate date nights and celebrations to brunches, cooking experiences, and special events.

I’ve been using Thumbtack as one of the ways clients discover my business, and I recently learned about the Pro Community. I’m excited to connect with other business owners who understand all the moving pieces that come with growing a service-based business.

I’m especially interested in conversations around marketing, lead generation, pricing, client experience, and turning inquiries into long-term customers. I’m also looking forward to learning what’s working for other pros and sharing some of what I’ve learned along the way.

I’d love to connect—what type of business do you own, and how long have you been using Thumbtack?

    Hi @Chef_VictoriaDarnell , welcome to the Community, Victoria! 👋 I love that you're already thinking beyond just getting the booking and looking at the whole picture, from marketing and lead generation to creating an experience that brings customers back.

    Since you mentioned getting the most value from your leads, I think you'll find this Community discussion helpful:

    How to set the right lead budget as a new pro

    There's a really great video in the post featuring one of our Top Pros sharing their own approach to managing lead spend and getting the most out of Thumbtack.

    And I have a feeling you'll find plenty of people here who can relate to all the moving pieces of running a service-based business! 😊 Looking forward to hearing some of the lessons you've picked up from creating curated in-home dining experiences for your clients too.
