Not Your Average Catering Company

We wanted to learn all about The Waterfall Catering & Special Events and its impressive online reputation, so we took a few minutes to talk with the General Manager, Dan Sommers.

The first question we had for Dan was what is it that sets The Waterfall Catering & Special Events apart from their competition in Delaware. Here’s Dan’s response:

“Everyone pays extreme attention to detail, starting with ownership. We really pride ourselves in what we do. We go above and beyond, putting out a bigger and higher quality spread than our competition. We don’t cut any corners and try to offer as much variety as possible. We want everyone to be able to enjoy the event. We have 70 to 80 different items available. Any dietary needs can be met!”

We also wanted to know what their mission is at The Waterfall Catering & Special Events and how they work to make the world a better place. Here’s what Dan had to say:

“We’re in the business of throwing parties! Our goal is to make sure that everyone can relax, enjoy themselves and have the time of their lives.”

Building Success by Going Above and Beyond

Dan attributes The Waterfall Catering & Special Events’ strong online reputation to their commitment to going above and beyond for their clients:

“We just try to go above and beyond and take care of them. We don’t really solicit reviews often. We ask if we hear that we’ve done a good job, though.”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, The Waterfall Catering & Special Events has gotten their name out there through word of mouth:

“The most important marketing tool that we have is word of mouth. We track all of our leads and appointments, and the majority of it is word of mouth. We’re listed on the wedding related directories, have billboards and do all of your basic advertising. We don’t have the thousand dollar pay-per-click campaigns. Our sales team tries to update Facebook and Instagram on a weekly basis to keep our content up to date.”

There are so many business owners out there looking to build the kind of online reputation The Waterfall Catering & Special Events has. Here’s Dan’s expert advice for them:

“Decide what your product is; decide what your goal is, and just go for it! Our owners have a vision, and they’ve come in and set that vision.”


Congratulations to the team at The Waterfall Catering & Special Events for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Dan, for taking the time to speak with us!
