Boost your venue sales and get more bookings in your calendar with a smart sales strategy and free follow-up checklist.
You’ve just aced a sales call. The client was engaged, they were impressed with the venue packages, and you felt a real connection. However, here's the reality: the actual "selling" continues even after you end the call. What occurs right after the call is the most crucial aspect of the venue sales process.
This is more than just sending a courteous "thank you for your time" email. It's about converting a promising discussion into a confirmed booking. It’s about utilising the momentum you’ve built and remaining top-of-mind as a desired event venue. Consider your follow-up after the call not as a task, but as your next, most strategic move (and if you're eager to get to our free sales follow-up checklist, get your hands on a copy below)
Why is the venue sales follow-up so important?
Because your clients are busy. They're talking to other venues and managing their projects. Without a sharp, intentional follow-up, that initial spark of interest you ignited can quickly fade.
A sales follow-up is your chance to:
Reiterate value: Remind them of the unique features they loved about your venue or how you directly addressed their specific needs.
Show you listen: A personalised follow-up shows you paid attention during the call. Reference specific details to show you truly understood their vision, building trust and rapport.
Maintain momentum: You've built a connection; don't let it fizzle. A timely and thoughtful follow-up keeps your venue in their active consideration set, moving them closer to a decision.
Pre-empt objections (subtly): If a slight hesitation or question arose during the call, your follow-up is a perfect place to provide additional information or reassurance without sounding defensive.
Differentiate yourself: In an industry where everyone promises the best, a meticulous and professional follow-up can set you apart. It’s your service and attention to detail that clients will remember.
