Do you recognize this?

Preparing quotations takes me so much extra time.

Create the most beautiful quotes with smart templates, in no time. Full color, in your corporate style.

You sometimes buy too much

Enter your recipe once, and Catermonkey’s purchasing calculator will automatically calculate what you need to order and where—for a single event or for the entire week.

Your profits could be better at the end of the year.

Cutting, pasting, typing, planning, calculating, and perhaps ordering too much. These are all avoidable costs that you can tackle with the right catering software.

Your mailbox is overflowing, and you’re falling behind.

Catermonkey’s digital workflow minimizes unnecessary emails. Everything clearly organized in one system.

You are no longer behind with your mailbox. Responding quickly will boost your sales figures!

You are being lived

Make tasks more transferable and transparent for everyone within your organization. The days when everyone had to ask you are over.

You have no insight into your food margin

Catermonkey tells you your margin per ingredient, dish, buffet, package, and event. In real time.

Do you regularly fish alongside a quote?

Then another caterer probably beat you to it with their quote and gained the customer’s trust. Digitize your quotes and respond much more quickly.

You only find out late in the day that the customer has a much lower budget in mind.

With a quotation indicator tool, customers can click on their requirements on your website and immediately receive a price estimate.

So before you waste any energy on it.

Too preoccupied with administrative tasks

Digitizing your processes will make tasks transferable, eliminate unnecessary cutting and pasting, and create clarity.

For everyone.

You don’t really dare to go on vacation

Catering software makes tasks transferable for your employees. So when you’re on vacation, your employees know exactly what to do. And you can log in on any computer with internet access, if necessary.

You print a lot and have many computers in your business.

Working without a good digital workflow requires a lot of paper, a sea of laptops, and staff to operate them.

You will save significantly on all of the above, while everyone has a better overview.

Customers sometimes have to wait a long time for their quote.

In that case, you will often miss out on an assignment.

What a waste!

Especially now that you know there is an affordable and well-designed alternative, developed for and by industry peers.

Only you know everything, it’s all in your head

That makes me feel uneasy.

When you digitize, it’s done.

You create enormous leverage, which also makes your company much more valuable to a potential buyer.
