Why Every Venue Should Have a Venue-Specific CRM

Are you still using single-function, disconnected tools such as email, spreadsheets, documents, and desktop folders to manage your venue's business? Are you finding yourself using the same CRM a hairdresser or plumber might use?

Many wedding venues effectively run their businesses this way, but to efficiently run a business, you need a system designed to sync with clients across the entire life cycle of their venue relationship. If you fall into this category, now is the time to upgrade how you manage your venue business and save yourself valuable time with a Venue CRM.
 

“I have looked at so many CRMs, and every single CRM that I get into, there's always that one thing that I don't ultimately end up liking. With all of the other CRMs that I've tried, it's always been kind of like, 'well, this CRM offers this ... this CRM offers this ... well, why don't you have a CRM that does all of that?' and that's where Weven comes in. Everything that I was looking for happened to be in one system." - The Melissa Barn

 
Why do you need a Venue-Specific CRM?

With event season being busier than ever, a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software or lead management tool saves the day when it comes to managing leads and booked events. Venue CRMs are more than just a place for venue hosts to organize and respond to leads. Venue CRMs organize your day-to-day venue communications and provide key insights to help make informed business decisions. With Weven, venues can easily manage all leads and event details in a single Venue CRM system while maintaining complete control over communications and operations. Our system provides you with insights on which couples book and when, as well as which planning tasks couples have completed.
 

"As a venue, you need a venue CRM built to move with the unique journey your couples take, including discovering your brand, touring, reviewing proposals, and ultimately booking. It's not as clean and simple as your standard lead and contract process so many CRMs are designed for." - The Barn Gobeille Farm
