How Client Pipeline Works

Weeks 1–3: Pipeline Audit & Strategy

We analyze your current client situation and missed opportunities.

You’ll discover why past clients aren’t returning, which marketing channels work for private chefs, and how to attract quality clients instead of bargain hunters.

Weeks 4–6: Build Your Booking System

We create your personalized client pipeline system:

  • Lead generation strategy for your market
  • Follow-up process for nurturing warm prospects
  • Re-engagement system for past clients
  • Outreach scripts for referrals and new prospects
  • Pipeline tracking tools to monitor every opportunity

Weeks 7–10: Implementation & Optimization

You implement your new systems with full support.

Weekly coaching calls, unlimited email support, real-time feedback on outreach and offers, live adjustments based on results.

If leads go cold, we fix it. If conversions are low, we adjust. If you’re not seeing progress, we pivot.

Weeks 11–12: Refinement & Sustainability

By day 90: complete pipeline system built and tested, lead generation running, follow-up in place, past client re-engagement working, tracking operational. You’ll have a repeatable process you can use for years.

Why Choose Westhaver Coaching?

Ben Kelly

Westhaver Coaching was founded by Ben Kelly, who built his own 6-figure private chef business using the exact systems taught in this program. Ben didn’t get lucky—he built repeatable processes for generating leads, nurturing prospects, and bringing clients back.

With 25+ years in culinary, 100+ TV appearances, partnerships with Barilla and KitchenAid, and two cookbooks, Ben has the credibility. More importantly, he’s replicated these systems with dozens of private chefs across the country.

This isn’t theory. It’s what works.

Real-World Example

Chef Profile: Personal chef in a mid-sized market, 2 years in business, getting 3–4 random bookings per month, no system for following up or bringing clients back, spending 15+ hours weekly on marketing.

The Problem: No process for lead generation, prospect nurturing, or past client re-engagement. Calendar unpredictable. Taking whatever work came in.

The Solution: Built complete pipeline system—lead generation for new prospects, automated follow-up sequences for warm leads, re-engagement for past clients, referral requests, tracking tools.

Results After 90 Days:

  • Working lead generation bringing in 8–12 new prospects monthly
  • Follow-up process converting ~40% of warm leads
  • 15 past clients re-engaged, 8 booked again
  • Tracking shows 18 active opportunities at various stages
  • Marketing time reduced from 15 hours to 3 per week
  • Monthly bookings increased from 3–4 to 10–14
  • System still working 18 months later with minimal maintenance

Is Client Pipeline Right for You?

This is for you if:

  • You’re getting some bookings but inconsistently
  • You have no system for follow-up or prospect nurturing
  • Past clients don’t return and you have no process to bring them back
  • You’re tired of starting from zero every month
  • You’re ready to build repeatable systems

This is NOT for you if:

  • You’re brand new with zero clients
  • You already have a working pipeline system
  • You prefer reacting to leads instead of building systems
  • You’re not willing to do outreach and follow-up
  • You expect results without implementation

FAQ

Common Questions

What exactly does “systems operational” mean?

Documented processes for lead generation, prospect follow-up, and past-client re-engagement are implemented; tracking shows active opportunities; scripts/templates are tested; the system works when you use it.

What if it takes longer than 90 days?

I keep working with you at no additional cost until your systems are built and operational. Most chefs finish in ~90 days; if you need more time, you get more time.

Will this guarantee I’m booked solid?

No. It guarantees you have the system for consistent bookings. Speed depends on market and follow-through—but you’ll have a working process.

How is this different from marketing?

Marketing gets leads. Client Pipeline converts them, brings past clients back, and ensures follow-up so opportunities don’t slip away.

Do I need to be on social media?

No. We focus on relationship-based strategies: referrals, past-client re-engagement, and targeted outreach.

How much time per week?

3–5 hours during the build phase; 1–2 hours/week to maintain after that.
