"With Cvent, the shift to fewer personnel was not a downsize; it was an opportunity to grow the company in a sustainable,smart way."
"I can say to a client, 'Let's develop a solution,' and in return we'll increase unique organization share by 20-30%, we'll see RFPs go up at least 20-30%, and we'll be able to grow market share against comp set at least by 20-30%."
“For our members, face-to-face events have consistently been one of the top five value drivers of YPO membership."
"Cvent Event Diagramming gives more of a visual and honest representation of what the space will be overall and what a client should expect. Then it helps operationally so we can pass all of that information on to everyone on our team, from our banquet staff to our events manager. Everyone has a visual take of what the meeting space will look like."
“About 90% of our leads come through Cvent."
"It is really a strategic partnership. We enjoy working with Cvent because they want to partner with us. They want to be the extension of the opportunities that we have within the technology space. The partnership is absolutely critical. They are an extension of our sales teams."
“We set up a global system with a defined global process, but which allows local process specifics – an event requested in India will be approved just like an event request in Germany, but the route to doing so can be different everywhere. We developed this process until 2019 when Cvent was expanded to the majority of Bayer and has run smoothly since. Our previous event approach was fragmented globally, and we had limited insight into attendee behaviour as well as our own expectations and budget efficiency for each event.”
"Where we don't have as large a proactive sales team at the moment, the Group Business Webpage allows us to reach planners without being on sales missions or sending people overseas."
“We’ve succeeded by making sustainability as simple as possible. We’ve made it easy to complete the green meetings checklist, and planners are automatically notified to do so after their event. It’s part of the process: daily, common practice broken down into actionable steps."
"We've been working with a broad variety of Cvent solutions for around ten years now. They're an integral part of our sales funnel. Diamond Listings give us tremendous reach even in markets where we don't have sales staff on the ground."
"With Cvent, we can get our property in front of more potential clients domestically but also internationally. A few clicks are enough for them to send an RFP. And thanks to the pre-saved answer blocks, we can send a response quickly. All that has helped us gain more leads and win a solid share of the business in our market."
"The benefit of our diamond advertising is that we can have more information on our profile- more pictures, more information about what to see and do in the city. We can steer the meeting planner toward what we want them to see about Amsterdam. They use Cvent to gather information about cities so it adds value to our advertising."
“Then for our employee events, we do a global employee event every year which involves the entire company.”
"Cvent answered a lot of challenges that hotels were facing by bringing easy-to-use solutions. In the past, when hotels were hosting events and trying to book participants, there was a lot of back-and-forth by email. We now have a great solution with Cvent Passkey, which is easy for the planners, the participants, and the hotels."
"The Cvent Supplier Network platform is one of a kind. There is nowhere else a meeting planner can go for a one-stop shop, get access to the information they need, and have direct access to our destination. Everything is at your fingertips!"
