Generic sales software treats every deal the same, but catering runs on details those tools never capture: delivery windows, dietary needs, the regulars who book every season, and the difference between a loose request and a confirmed job. Catermonkey keeps all of that next to every customer, so your sales pipeline, your quotes and your kitchen work from one shared record. It is the place your team goes to manage a customer from the first inquiry to the next repeat booking. It is a strong fit for the full MICE world too: meetings, incentives, conferences and events. Inquiries often come in scattered via forms, email or separate inboxes. Especially during busy periods, there is a high risk that an inquiry will be overlooked or followed up too late. And every missed inquiry means lost revenue. With Catermonkey's website link, all inquiries are automatically received in one central system. From the first contact, you have all the customer information at your fingertips, whether it's for lunch, drinks or a complete event. You can respond faster, prepare quotes and follow up without manual work. ## 1. Smart contact form Once you submit your request, you will automatically receive all the details in your Catermonkey account: customer information, start and end times, number of people, beverage options, and more. This is how you can create the perfect quote in no time! ## 2. Online quotation tool Let customers put together their own party via your website. They choose canapés, buffets, desserts and optionally a drinks package. They get a price indication immediately, after which you only need to add staff and transport costs and send the quote. These widgets, as we call them, are highly flexible. ## 3. Ordering and paying online Do you have a party menu, are you organizing a dinner & dance or a workshop? With Catermonkey, your customers can order and pay directly online, if the situation lends itself. ## 4. More sales, less work Modern dynamic online presence results in: more requests, less follow-up hassle, and faster quotes. Modern customers want clarity without endless emails. With Catermonkey, you can quickly send a gorgeous quote. You wow your customers and build trust at the same time! ## 5. Always have insight into requests See all incoming requests, open quotes, and closed deals at a glance. Automatic reminders ensure you respond on time if a quote has been open for too long, and you can easily send a friendly follow-up. You can even see how often the quote has been opened!

The right catering software takes those costs off your plate. ##### Your inbox is overflowing and you're always playing catch-up Catermonkey's digital workflow keeps everything in one clear system, so you reply faster and nothing slips through the cracks. And replying fast shows up directly in your sales figures. ##### You're running after your own business instead of the other way round Make tasks visible and shareable across your whole team, so people stop having to ask you for everything. ##### You've got no visibility on your food margin Catermonkey shows your margin per ingredient, dish, buffet, package and event, in real time. ##### You keep losing jobs to a faster quote Chances are another caterer got there first and won the client's trust before you did. Digitise your quotes and respond within the hour instead of days. ##### You only find out too late that the client's budget was miles off A price indicator on your website gives visitors a rough estimate based on their own requirements, upfront. So you're not spending hours on a quote that was never going to land. ##### You're buried in admin Digitising your process means less copy-pasting, tasks anyone on the team can pick up, and a clear overview for everyone. ##### You don't quite dare take a holiday With catering software, your team knows exactly what to do while you're away, and you can still log in from anywhere if you really need to. ##### You're printing everything and running computers all over the place Working without a digital workflow costs paper, hardware and time. Cut all three, while everyone gets a clearer overview. ##### Clients sometimes wait too long for a quote And that's often exactly how you lose the job. A shame, especially now there's an affordable alternative built by people from the industry. ##### You're the only one who knows how everything works That's a stressful place to be. Digitising changes that, and it also makes your business worth more to a future buyer. --- # Integrations Source: https://catermonkey.com/en/catermonkey-integrations/ # Integrations Easily connect Catermonkey to popular accounting software for less work and lower costs for your accountant.

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. --- # About us Source: https://catermonkey.com/en/about-us/ # About us Catermonkey is built by people who have spent years talking to caterers, food service providers and event venues about what goes wrong, what takes too long and what keeps them working weekends.
