Enquiry to deposit, while the date is still open.
Event clients need numbers today for their approval, and they ask everyone. OpsCore asks the two questions that matter, sends proposals from your menus and packages, holds the date, takes the deposit and invoices the balance, with documents ready for corporate finance teams.
Where the jobs slip away.
"Need numbers by today for approval."
Your team is running tonight's event. Nobody sees it.
"Can you send the menu again?"
Version four of a proposal, in a WhatsApp thread nobody can find.
"Finance needs a proper invoice."
And a TRN, and a PO number, and for it to match the quote.
