With a business model built on innovation, affordability and trust, SalesAndCatering.com has attracted over 150+ management companies to the industry-leading STS Cloud platform
Charleston, SC – (January 4, 2023) – SalesAndCatering.com has had a year defined by exciting additions to its growing client portfolio, which now includes over 150 management companies using the company’s flagship sales and catering solution, STS Cloud.
Founded over 30 years ago and currently serving over 2,300 of the world’s leading hotels, resorts, and meeting venues, STS Cloud is developed and supported from the company’s US-based offices. Only STS Cloud offers a full suite of features for unlimited users at a flat monthly fee. The company sets the highest standard for personalized service, professional training, and simplicity of system implementation that helps hotels see an immediate impact on productivity, profits, and ROI.
“As a long-time user of STS and having witnessed its benefit in over 65 hotels, this tool helps ownership groups with pricing and innovative ideas in sales and marketing,” shares Craig Stechman, Vice President of Management Sales at Dellisart. “STS Cloud is an exceptionally easy-to-use and effective tool, and I love that it is built specifically for hotel salespeople.”
STS Cloud is a next-generation, cloud-based, securely hosted sales and catering software, which takes care of CRM functions, catering needs, document workflows, booking management, lead management, reporting, and so much more. It is a powerful multi-property management solution that gives management companies a detailed view of sales performance across their entire portfolio. It offers a property gateway allowing users to have one login and the ability to look at the portfolio with no added cost.
“From the beginning our mission was to create a highly affordable sales and catering system that was easy to learn but included all the functionality you would expect from a full featured system, explains Dexter McKenzie, co-founder of SalesAndCatering.com. “We succeeded in doing that by listening to our clients over the decades and constantly evolving the product. Achieving this goal was possible by working with our clients as a ‘partner’, not just another vendor. “
A 360-degree bird’s eye view helps maintain brand standards across its properties. The platform is completely customizable and easily adapted for special property-level needs. Hotels can be set up for a cluster sales environment, where users work from a shared accounts and contacts database. STS Cloud’s healthy list of integration partners include Opera, StayNTouch, Jonas Chorum, Skytouch, ProfitSword, DocuSign, and Sertifi [to name a few] – all available as integration solutions to help add efficiencies to the sales process.
Beyond the platform’s advanced functionality and intuitive user interface, Ryan Hamilton, the company’s co-founder, notes that “the key ingredient to the company’s success is trust. For hotel management companies to remain competitive, they need a platform that reduces costs, drives revenue, and breaks down barriers between properties. More importantly, though, they need an experienced partner they trust.”
“The WeddingWire integration is being rolled out to our properties, and this is a huge time saver, especially having smaller teams post-pandemic,” shares Ashley Asher, Senior Director of Sales at Columbia Hospitality. With inbound group business and RFPs increasing rapidly, having a unified system for each property’s sales team has been incredibly helpful. The Sales and Event Division has increased by 65% in the last six months.”
