Do you remember the excitement and trepidation of opening your first restaurant or catering business? I certainly do. When I first opened my BBQ joint, I wanted to make sure we stood out from our competitors, so I decided to do a little mystery shopping. I called up various catering businesses in the area to see how they handled catering inquiries.
What I discovered was shocking. Most of the time, I did not get the person in charge of catering on the phone. Sometimes, the phone would ring and ring, and nobody would answer. Other times, I'd get a voicemail, or an employee would pick up and tell me to call back later. This was a huge red flag.
Forbes recently reported that 80% of the time someone calls to do business with you, and the phone goes unanswered, the next call is to your competitor. This is a startling statistic, and it's something that we, at CaterZen, take very seriously.
We decided to create a solution to this problem: Rapid Reply. Rapid Reply is designed to ensure that you never miss a catering inquiry again. With Rapid Reply, you can efficiently respond to catering inquiries, streamline your communication, and close more catering deals.
