I am pretty new to social media/ posting and communities and wanted to start here with an intro video of who I am and what I aim to teach. Ive been in world class fine dining restaurants for 15 years and started my catering company during the pandemic. After working out the kinks, I was able grow it into a 6 figure business and wanted to share this knowledge with anyone who wants the same. I'll help you create your own custom cuisine and procedures that make you stand out from the rest making great supplemental income working just a few days a month. This is a free class to help anyone who loves to restore and nourish others, make life changing money and spend more time with your family. Hope to see you soon 🥂 Chef Gilleum

This course is meant to be easy to read and get through. I know cooks and chefs are tired and don't have time at the end of the day. This shows consolidated inside nuances of the business in simple easy steps.

Turning Cooking Skills Into Income How chefs and cooks escape endless shifts and earn an extra $25k–$50k a year with catering — without burning out or underpricing themselves. This isn’t a get rich course. It’s for skilled cooks and chefs who are tired of: - 10–12 hour shifts - Being great at food but bad at pricing - Feeling stuck on the line with no exit - Knowing they have more to offer but no clear path If you already know how to cook — this course shows you how to get paid properly for it. What this course actually teaches This is a practical, no-fluff guide built from real experience, not theory. You’ll learn: - How to use catering as a side income, not a burnout machine - How to price in a way that protects your time, body, and sanity - How to avoid cheap clients and say no without guilt - What menus actually make money (and which ones quietly kill you) - How to book a few high-value jobs instead of working nonstop - How to structure work so catering fits around your life — not the other way around This is about working smarter, fewer days, and with intention. Who this is for - Line cooks who want an exit plan - Chefs tired of grinding for someone else’s dream - Cooks who want extra income without quitting their job - Anyone who loves cooking but doesn’t want to destroy their body doing it You don’t need: - A restaurant - A food truck - Investors - Social media fame You need clarity, boundaries, and a better system. Who this is not for - People looking for overnight success - Influencer-style “content creators” - Anyone who doesn’t actually like cooking This is for people who want real money, real control, and a sustainable path forward. Why this works I built this after years in: - Professional kitchens - Catering operations - High-pressure environments where burnout is normalized Everything here is something I wish someone had told me before I learned it the hard way. What you get - A clear, structured course you can move through at your own pace - Practical lessons you can apply immediately - A framework you can use alongside your current job - Access to a community of cooks and chefs building income on their own terms

My name is Gilleum Marcoux, I run a small catering company here in Las Vegas serving upscale bbq and fine dining menus. I will be sharing my personal culinary secrets, techniques and strategies to create your own profitable catering business right from your home. I’ve been able to get out from someone else’s kitchen and work for myself for the past 6 years and it has changed my life. I want to help other chefs, cooks, home chefs, food truckers and really anyone who loves to cook, start their own business. I’ll be sharing cooking techniques, client negotiations, how to file your taxes, psychology, dynamics of the business, leads and seriously so much more. If you love to cook, I can teach you how to make money and create your own unique cuisine that no one can replicate. If this resonates with you, join my community Calm Under Fire. Program officially starts January 1st 2026. Thank you, and I look forward to meeting you all 🥂
