Midyear Goals & Graduation Sales

We are halfway through the year, which makes this the perfect time to pause, check your goals, and refocus on the sales opportunities directly in front of you.

In this episode of Uncensored and In Charge, Erin Childs walks through a practical midyear check-in for 2026 goals, then shifts into one of the biggest catering opportunities of the season: graduations, school events, summer parties, and the warm-weather sales pipeline.

Presented by Erin Childs, Independent, Restaurant Consultant & Coach, and host of the Uncensored and In Charge on CaterLinked.

In this session, Erin explores:

How to evaluate your 2026 goals at the halfway point
Why goals should be revisited, adjusted, and acted on consistently
How to use a simple green, yellow, red scorecard to assess progress
Why daily habits and micro moments matter more than motivation
How graduation season can lead to repeat catering business
Why catering sales must be supported by operational readiness
How to reengage past customers and turn current events into future opportunities

If you are in catering, sales, operations, or leadership, this session is a timely reminder to stay focused, stay accountable, and execute with purpose.
