As a personal Chef, I have a close relationship to my clients in the sense that they trust me not only with their dietary restrictions, but also to deliver food right into their fridge. It's very hard to say what a next step to that would be. Of course, I wouldn't mind at all to be their preferred Chef for any family gatherings or business caterings. I do unterstand, though, that this takes far longer to develop than I have been in business yet.
I keep track of all orders and know who only ordered a few times or once from me. Since I use reusable containers, I meet all of my clients at least once more after their order and ask them about their satisdaction with my food and what led them to pause their orders for now.
