In the bustling world of catering, where the difference between success and struggle often hinges on efficiency and adaptability, Isalin Howard, the Owner of Brunswick Catering, in New Brunswick, NJ, discovered a powerful ally in CaterZen. We'll explore Brunswick Catering's transformative journey from manual processes to streamlined success, highlighting the significant impact CaterZen's catering software has had on their operations, customer satisfaction, and overall business growth.
The Challenge: Manual Processes and Limited Flexibility
Before embracing CaterZen, Brunswick Catering was ensnared in a web of manual processes. Invoicing was a tedious affair, requiring significant time and effort to create and send invoices to customers, let alone tracking payments through Excel spreadsheets. Their previous software offered little in the way of freedom and flexibility, particularly when customers needed changes to their orders.
This inefficiency and rigidity were stifling, preventing Brunswick Catering from responding swiftly to client needs and from focusing on other critical areas of their business.
The Solution: CaterZen’s Comprehensive Software
The decision to switch to CaterZen was driven by a desire to eliminate manual processes and enhance operational flexibility. CaterZen's ability to simplify generating catering invoices and catering quotes, coupled with its dynamic online ordering system, promised a significant reduction in day-to-day administrative burdens. Howard was particularly impressed by CaterZen’s transformational impact, highlighting a feature that became indispensable:
"Transforming a quote into an invoice with one click has been a big, big, big time-saver."
