Thynk, a provider of next-generation hospitality commercial management solutions, and Cvent, an industry-leading meetings, events, and hospitality technology provider, have announced a strategic partnership to empower hotel and venue sales teams with the solutions they need to drive greater business results.
The partnership includes integrations between Thynk’s on and above-property hospitality CRM powered by Salesforce and the following Cvent hospitality group sales, operations and management solutions:
- Cvent Supplier Network (CSN) | Hotels and venues showcase their properties on CSN to attract planners, respond to requests for proposals (RFPs) and book group business on one of the world’s largest sourcing platforms.
- Smart Custom Proposals | Easy-to-use solution for designing interactive custom-built proposal templates to stand out from the competition.
- Cvent Event Diagramming | This innovative diagramming solution simplifies and accelerates the creation of event diagrams, while built-in collaboration tools facilitate real-time collaboration between on-property stakeholders and event planners.
The companies plan to launch an initial pilot of the integration by the end of the year, and Postillion Hotels, a key contributor to the integration, has already agreed to be a launching customer.
“We’ve found incredible success in building our brand and attracting more group business to our properties with Cvent, and the Thynk integration will enable our teams to accelerate that growth,” said Erik-Jan Ginjaar, Managing Director at Postillion Hotels. “As early proponents of this particular integration, it’s refreshing to know that Cvent and Thynk take our feedback and ideas to heart, and we’re excited to make the most of this new offering.”
Through the partnership and integrations, Thynk and Cvent are powering a more seamless, integrated group business management experience that reduces manual workload, ensures high-quality lead management and accelerates response times to close deals faster and increase group sales revenue. The partnership delivers:
- Easy-to-configure and fully integrated commercial solution: The powerful combination of Thynk’s hospitality end-to-end commercial platform with Cvent’s advanced hospitality technology platform optimizes the cost of hotel sales and operations and enables enhanced service delivery to clients, customers and guests.
- Enhanced sales efficiency: The integrations minimize manual workload, empowering sales teams to focus on more strategic activities and increasing overall productivity.
- Quality and consistency in sales operations: Through robust lead management tools, data quality prioritization, and customizable lead management processes, the integrations facilitate a more consistent, high-quality sales strategy and execution.
