Cooking school marketing
Every seat at the stove booked.
Clieni Media is a Berlin agency that helps cooking schools fill their classes: with a website where every date can be booked directly, gift card sales that run around the clock, and dedicated offers for corporate team events. On top come visibility on Google and in AI assistants, plus ads ahead of the dates that still have seats.

How your customers ask ChatGPT
- „Where can I find a cooking class for two as a gift in my city?“

- „Where can I book a vegan cooking class at the weekend?“
- „What is a good gift idea for home cooks?“
Typical searches. We make sure you show up for them.
Where Cooking schools get stuck
Empty seats right before the date
A class with twelve seats and four bookings costs almost as much as a full one: ingredients, room, chef. Empty seats in the week before are lost money.
Booking by email and phone
If people first have to write an email to ask whether Saturday still has room, many never book. And every question costs you time next to running classes.
Gift cards only in season
Cooking classes are a popular gift: before Christmas, for birthdays, for anniversaries. Without online sales and an instant PDF, that business passes you by.
Companies can't find you
Team events bring whole groups at once, often on weekdays. But companies search for “team event”, not “cooking class”, and need different information: group size, invoicing, schedule.

How does a cooking school fill its classes?
By making open seats visible and instantly bookable. A calendar with direct booking, a waiting list for sold-out dates and targeted ads for classes that still have room close the gaps. Gift cards add bookings for the months after.
Is selling gift cards online worth it?
Yes, because cooking classes are bought as gifts, often spontaneously and in the evening. A voucher that arrives instantly as a PDF sells even while you are teaching a class.
How does a cooking school win corporate clients?
With its own team event page that clearly answers group size, schedule, weekday dates and company invoicing. Plus ads that reach HR and office managers when summer parties and Christmas parties are being planned.
