Booked out instead of waiting for enquiries
Wedding season and the Christmas party rush decide your whole year. SmartChat keeps you on the minds of companies and private clients via WhatsApp - before they even ask.
Sound familiar?
Enquiries arrive too late, or not at all
Companies plan the Christmas party, couples plan the wedding - and only think of you once the date is nearly set. The caterer who gets on their radar first gets the enquiry.
One-off bookings instead of regular clients
The summer party was a hit and everyone raved about it - and next year the company books someone else, because the contact quietly went cold. Follow-up emails barely get read.
Quiet spells between the peaks
The wedding months and December are packed, and in between the calendar is empty. There's no shortage of occasions - anniversaries, conferences, private parties - you just have to bring them up in time.
How you use SmartChat
Get in early for the season
The best dates for Christmas parties and summer events go early - whoever reads your reminder in late summer sends the enquiry to you, not to the caterer down the road.
Follow up after the event
A short thank you after the party keeps the relationship warm - and when the next team event comes around, yours is the first name mentioned.
Fill spare capacity
Dates that free up at short notice don't have to stay empty: one message to your contacts, and a gap in the calendar turns into an extra booking.
Introduce new menu options
Street food buffet, vegan menu, live cooking: clients who know what's new have one more reason to book again - and they talk about it around the office.

FAQs
Does WhatsApp really work with business clients?
Yes, and it works best there. The people who organise parties and events are humans with overflowing inboxes: a short WhatsApp message gets read, the fifth quote by email often doesn't.
When should I start bringing up the Christmas season?
Much earlier than most caterers dare to. Plenty of companies lock in their dates in late summer. With SmartChat you set that reminder up once, and it goes out at exactly the right moment.
How do I build my contact list?
Through the landing page SmartChat creates from your website: as a link in your quote, on the invoice or as a QR code at the event. Every contact confirms via double opt-in, documented and GDPR-compliant.
What does SmartChat cost per month?
Plans start at 188 euros per month on the annual plan and contacts are unlimited. The WhatsApp sending fees are billed by Meta directly - with nothing added on top by SmartChat.
How personal can the messages be?
Very personal: a first-name greeting, a mention of the last event, the right occasion. The AI drafts in your tone of voice - you tweak whatever matters to you and hit approve.
