Leading hospitality management company optimizes group sales by using advanced automation, boosting collaboration, reducing response times, and elevating client satisfaction.
Avalon Hospitality Group (AHG), a trusted name in hotel management for full-service, select-service and resort properties, proudly announces the integration of SalesAndCatering.com’s STS Cloud and ProposalPath by Bluebuzzard across its expansive portfolio. This forward-thinking commitment to cutting-edge group sales technology is set to enhance productivity, elevate client experiences, and foster growth throughout its properties.
Avalon's sales team loves the simple design of features like E-Signature and Online RFP Forms, which make it easier for new employees to get started and simplify everyday tasks. Better communication between departments has made it smoother to coordinate sales, meetings, and events. Teams now work more efficiently, easily meeting client needs through streamlined communication and data sharing.
According to Robin Grazioso, the company’s Vice President of Sales & Marketing, STS Cloud and ProposalPath have been a game-changer for their sales strategy. These tools have allowed us to centralize our data, automate routine tasks, and gain valuable insights into customer preferences—all of which have been instrumental in refining our approach. Not only have they streamlined our operations, but they’ve also empowered our team to focus on what truly matters: building stronger relationships and providing exceptional service to our clients. With real-time information at our fingertips, we can now respond to client needs faster and more accurately than ever before.
Team members particularly value the robust analytics capabilities, which provide valuable insights into customer preferences and emerging trends. Additionally, the automation of routine tasks, such as follow-up emails and invoicing, has freed up staff time to focus on strategic initiatives that drive revenue, increasing both productivity and job satisfaction.
Avalon’s implementation of ProposalPath has also improved sales effectiveness, allowing team members to create professional, customized proposals that can be easily shared with clients, expediting the contract process by up to 33%. The seamless integration between STS Cloud, ProposalPath, E-Signature, and RFP Forms further reduces errors and ensures that staff have access to the latest information, fostering greater accuracy and responsiveness in client interactions.
