The "Fragmented Outreach" Problem
Endless manual research for vendor and venue leads—such as sourcing 50+ potential suppliers for a single corporate retreat—drains creative energy needed for curating bespoke event experiences
Inconsistent follow-ups on seasonal leads, like post-holiday corporate bookings, lead to missed opportunities in a market where 70% of events are planned within 90 days
Generic emails fail to capture the nuance of client event visions, such as tailoring pitches for hybrid gala formats versus intimate wedding receptions
Scattered prospect data across CRM, email, and venue booking tools disrupts relationship-building flow for ongoing client engagements like multi-year conference series
Time-intensive personalization for proposals, such as customizing vendor RFPs for themed galas, leaves no room for on-site client coordination during peak seasons
Unpredictable lead volume from fluctuating event inquiries hampers budgeting for peak seasons, where staffing costs can spike 40% for summer festivals and weddings

What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, our team spent Fridays buried in lead lists for peak wedding season, manually vetting 100+ venues per client. Now, the automation handles initial outreach with personalized vendor matches, and we've landed three major contracts—including a 200-guest corporate gala—in two months without extra hires. It's like having an extra planner on staff during crunch time."
Sarah Jenkins
Senior Event Coordinator at Elite Events Co., a boutique firm specializing in luxury weddings and corporate functions
"We were skeptical about AI fitting our creative industry, but their custom system personalized pitches for corporate retreats—factoring in client budgets and hybrid formats—perfectly. Response rates jumped from 12% to 38% within the first quarter, and it integrated with our Google Workspace calendar without a hitch, saving us about 10 hours a week on follow-ups."
Mike Rivera
Business Development Lead at Summit Planners, experts in executive retreats and team-building events
"The old manual process was killing our margins during peak festival season, with scattered vendor emails leading to delayed partnerships. AIQ's tool automated outreach and smart follow-ups, helping us secure 15% more partnerships—like key sponsorships for music festivals—last quarter, boosting our event revenue by $50K. It's practical, not flashy, and exactly what we needed for scalable growth."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle the creative side of event proposals?
Our system goes beyond templates by analyzing your past successful pitches and client data to generate tailored content. For instance, it pulls in details like preferred themes or budgets to craft messages that resonate—like suggesting a beach gala for a coastal corporate client. We've seen planners maintain their unique voice while cutting drafting time by 60%. It's custom-built to your style, ensuring outreach feels personal, not robotic, and integrates directly with your proposal tools for seamless handoff.
What kind of time savings can event companies realistically expect?
Based on our deployments, event firms typically save 10-15 hours per week per rep on research and initial outreach. This comes from automating lead sourcing from directories like Eventbrite or LinkedIn, plus generating first-draft emails. One client, a mid-sized planner, redirected those hours to on-site coordination, boosting their close rate by 25% in the first quarter. We track this via built-in metrics, adjusting to your workflow for maximum efficiency without sacrificing relationship quality.
Is the system flexible for seasonal fluctuations in event planning?
Absolutely. We design it with your calendar in mind, automating ramps for peak periods like summer weddings or year-end galas. The AI predicts volume based on historical data and triggers scaled campaigns—e.g., doubling outreach in Q4. Unlike rigid tools, our custom build adapts via simple rules you set, ensuring no overload during crunch times. Clients report handling 2x leads without added staff, maintaining service levels across busy seasons.
How do you ensure data privacy for client and prospect information?
Security is paramount in relationship-driven fields like event planning. We use enterprise-grade encryption and comply with GDPR/CCPA, building only what you own and host. No third-party data sharing—everything stays in your integrated ecosystem. For example, prospect details from outreach are anonymized until engagement, and we include audit logs for compliance checks. Our track record shows zero breaches in five years, giving you peace of mind while focusing on client trust.
Can this integrate with our existing event management software?
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like HoneyBook, Planning Pod, or even custom CRMs. During discovery, we map your workflow—say, syncing leads to your vendor database for quick matching. This eliminates manual entry, reducing errors that could derail bookings. Post-launch, we provide ongoing support to refine connections, ensuring the system evolves with your operations and delivers sustained efficiency gains.
What's the ROI timeline for implementing this automation?
Most event companies see positive ROI within 2-4 months, with full payback in six. We base this on benchmarks: a 40% response rate increase translates to 20-30% more bookings, often worth $50K+ annually for mid-sized firms. We include ROI tracking from day one, using your metrics like lead-to-close ratios. One planner recouped costs in eight weeks through a single high-value conference win. It's not hype—it's engineered for your specific revenue drivers.
