Meet Donald Taylor of DNC Catering in Jonesboro

Today we’d like to introduce you to Donald Taylor.

Donald, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
My love for cooking started at a young age. Some of my earliest memories are of my grandmother getting up early on Sunday mornings to get dinner started. My mother noticed early that I showed an interest in cooking because she signed me up to be in a culinary completion through the local 4H club. I won the local as well as regional rounds and was invited to compete for the state championship for consecutive years. From that point on I’ve always been the go too cook for gathering with family and friends. Almost two years ago, I was asked to cater a small birthday party for a close friend. As part of her payment, she gifted me 500 business cards. That was the spark I needed to get the ball rolling. That one event set the ball in motion, it was then through word of mouth as well as social media my business began to grow. This has truly been a blessing to me and my family.

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Overall the road has been smooth, the greatest challenge for me was maintaining the work/family balance. Time management is key to be successful in anything you do.
