Introduction

Chef Life Media is a platform built by Adam Lamb. He built this to represent the real hustle, creativity, and grit of chefs and the food industry. Through storytelling, content creation, partnerships, and events, Chef Life Media has consistently brought culinary professionals into the spotlight since 2014.

If we speak of the present, Chef Life Media has evolved into something that is turning out to change the lives of many chefs across the globe. When it started in 2014, it was mainly focused on Chef Life Radio, which involved podcasts sharing raw stories, mindset shifts, and practical leadership tools for chefs. Based on the impact the community observed, an initiative such as Chef Life Coach was started in 2022 to guide culinary professionals to build strong teams, communicate with confidence, and create kitchens that thrive. Adam Lamb also launched his book named “The Successful Chef”, to give practical strategies, mindset shifts, and companion tools to help culinary professionals.

As the community grew, so did the number of collaborations, projects, and satisfied clients. From restaurateurs to culinary product creators, Chef Life Media’s work touched a wide community. The stories were powerful. The visuals were captivating. But there was one area that needed attention, credibility in the form of public feedback.

The team realised that while their content spoke volumes, but new brands and partners visiting the website or discovering them online had no access to authentic feedback from others. That’s where the need for a testimonial tool came in.

The Challenges to be Addressed

Chef Life Media had built strong trust within the culinary community, but their digital presence didn’t fully showcase the same. Most of the praise came in person, comments, through emails, or messages after going through podcasts, coaching, or book reading. They needed a simpler way to:

  • Collect feedback from chefs, restaurant owners, and collaborators in an easy way.
  • Collect reviews in multiple formats, such as audio, text, and video.
  • Create a dedicated place, such as a landing page, to show real testimonials.
  • Option to display them as a widget on their website in a design-friendly, brand-consistent manner.
  • Avoid the headache of managing reviews manually or building an internal system.

The Feedspace Solution

Chef Life Media came across Feedspace while searching for testimonial tools and immediately found that the use case and functionality align perfectly with their content-driven brand. Here’s what they did with Feedspace, soon after onboarding:

Chef Life Media testimonial form with Feedspace
  • They created 2 feedback forms as needed for the situation, one for testimonials and the other for podcast feedback/collaboration.
  • In both forms, for testimonials and podcast feedback, they added multiple options for review submissions, such as text, video, and audio formats.
  • With just a few easy steps, they created a dedicated landing page to show the best reviews. The page, called the Wall of Love, matched their aesthetic and showed the best feedback from real industry people.
  • Testimonials featured in the Wall were shown with review date and also a CTA to submit new reviews, which added to better credibility and overall experience.

  • They started getting reviews from chefs and industry colleagues, each of which added to the brand’s public image.
  • By sending the Wall of Love link to others, credibility improved as people saw the brand’s value through others' voices.
  • The internal team could now manage, approve, and organise reviews from one central dashboard, making it easier to control as and when needed.
  • For a media brand built on the backbone of real stories, Feedspace became the tool to showcase their own story, told by others.
