The "Done For You" Cooking Classes To Get You Started
 

What if all of the work was done for you?

 If you have ever put together a class or workshop, especially one with food and health, you know what it takes to create and test recipes, develop the workshop outline, create all the materials and then take on the experience of sharing it with others.

This is the on ramp to ease the way. We’re making this easier for you.
 

It is time to save yourself from:

  • hundreds of hours to research
  • creating recipes, testing them, and the creating them again
  • developing your logistics plan
  • making shopping lists, prep lists and of course checking those lists off
  • then comes the promotional piece and actually filling your classes

You should be out in the world sharing all you know (and continue to learn) about culinary nutrition, not drowning in all tedious details of planning.

It’s now your turn to become the teacher and we want to help.

The Teaching Resources Portal is a unique, information-packed resource portal that makes teaching cooking classes and workshops easy - whether you're doing it in person or online.

Registration is now open to everyone.

The Resources We Provide For Each Class

For each of the above cooking class themes, we provide the following detailed resources to support your success in sharing these classes and empowering those who seek your guidance to make health happen in their own lives.

For each of the nine classes outlined above, you receive:

  1. Promotional Copy: You’ll receive a word document with promotional copy that you can add to emails, social media posts or blog posts to help you share and promote your classes.
  2. Promotional Flyer: A professionally designed promotional flyer using original photography that can be sent as an email or printed and shared in local businesses to help promote your classes.
  3. Promotional Images: You’ll have gorgeous professionally styled and shot images (one per class) in various sizes and formats to use across social media to help you support your efforts in getting the word out about your classes.
  1. Original Recipes: A packet of original recipes specially created to support the class topic.
  2. Logistics Plan for a Cooking Class*: This logistics plan is to help you get set and ready for success. It includes your prep schedule, equipment list, and time blocking for a hands on cooking class.
  1. Logistics Plan for a Workshop: Prefer a demonstration-style workshop? We also include a logistics plan for a workshop that includes a prep schedule, equipment list and time blocking chart for a demonstration-style class.
  2. Teaching Manual and Talking Points: Consider this your cheat sheet. For each class you receive a fully researched and referenced guide to sharing your nutritional knowledge while teaching. This guide includes all of the recipes, outlining specific key health tips and culinary tips for key ingredients in each recipe. There is also space provided to add your own notes.
  1. Student Handout: Enable your students to follow along and leave them empowered with a handout that includes the key takeaways from the class guides, tips, strategies, all of the recipes made in class along with all of the references for the research.
  2. Shopping List: Finally, we also include your class shopping list in an editable document so you can add and remove items as needed based on any specifications you need for your class.

*There is no logistics plan for a cooking class for the Smoothie and Elixir class. We’re hopeful people know how to blend stuff, so this class topic is best suited as a demo-style workshop where you can wow your crew with knowledge.

Return On Investment

Our expectation is that you will be charging attendees for these classes, making your investment in the Teaching Resources Portal incredibly cost-efficient. Let’s do some math!

Time Needed To Create A Cooking Class

To create a class from start to finish including recipe creation and testing, promotional images, promotional copy,  your prep schedule, teaching plan, research, speaking notes and student handout.

  • Time needed per class to do on your own: 40+ hours per class
  • Time needed using the Teaching Portal Resources: 1 hour (mainly updating your shopping list)
>> Total time savings: 360 hours!


The time it takes to prepare classes is not billable time.
 It’s time that takes you away from teaching, working with clients, and limits your free time. The Teaching Resources Portal allows you to save time getting your classes ready, and more time for family, friends, and the other aspects of your life.

Earnings Per Class

Depending on where you live and what others in your area are charging, most classes and workshops can sell for $60 – $110 per person, per in-person class. For a live, online class, you could start at $35 per person, per online class.

Let’s break down your profitable possibilities.

>> Sample Earnings:
  • Two classes for six people at $75/person: You will earn $900. Teach 4 classes you’ll have earned back your investment in the portal, and cover your hard costs for your class. Basically, you could break even after teaching just four classes.
  • Teaching a 4-week cooking program: Choose four of the eight classes to sell as a 4-part cooking series. Let’s say you have room for eight people and package this up and sell it for $400 for the 4-week series. That works out to $3,200!
  • Teaching one class a month to ten people for eight months: Let’s say you are doing this as a side hustle and want to teach a different class on the first Saturday of the month from September through to May (taking December off!). If you have ten people register at $100/class for all eight Saturdays, you would earn $8,000 per year! Over 5 times your investment and a sweet little bonus income.

The Teaching Resources Portal is the investment in your business to potentially save you hundreds of hours of your time. And earn you thousands of dollars in your pocket.

Not Included In The Teaching Resources Portal

 

Yes, the Teaching Resources Portal includes everything you need to get ready and set to teach your classes. But this isn’t for everyone and doesn’t guarantee your success. That comes from your efforts!

  • Not For Business Training: This is about teaching cooking classes and making it easy for you to do it. This isn’t a business plan and we don’t talk business beyond what’s outlined above. The Biz Rocking Insider program is the business training component and would be the first step to starting a business.
  • Not For Pre-recorded or Recorded Video-based Teaching Using the Academy of Culinary Nutrition Branding: These classes are designed for live, in-person or live online classes only. If you wish to convert our classes into your own online courses, you would be required to rebrand the teaching materials to align with your own business.
  • Not Providing Registration Support: We do not take a cut on your classes. What you sell is all yours and as such, it is the responsibility of our Certified Instructors to manage all payments, refunds and anything else associated with enrolling students in your classes.
  • Not Providing Specific Guidance On How To Grow Your Audience: Once again, everything related to building and growing your business is covered in the Biz Rocking Insider Program.
