A wedding is not a company

Mr and Mrs Durand have no website to enrich. Their profile builds differently: from what they asked you, visited, signed. One event can carry several contacts, the two spouses, a parent who pays, a wedding planner, and each keeps their own profile.

A profile without a company

Name, email, phone, events, notes: a contact profile works perfectly well without an attached company. Nothing to make up, nothing left blank.

Several contacts on the same event

The couple, the person who pays, the wedding planner: you attach several contacts to the same event. You write to the right person the first time.

Wedding planners count double

A planner brings you several weddings a year. Their profile shows the events they brought you and the revenue that came with them, just like an agency.

What changes when you know your clients

The conversations you can have once their full history is in front of you.

A regular calls back

Before you even say hello, you see their complete history: past events, preferred spaces, usual guest count, average budget. No more awkward "remind me who you are?" moments. Start the conversation where it actually matters.

Spot critical client notes

Severe allergies, wheelchair access, VIP preferences, past complaints — every note your team has ever added is visible the moment you open a contact. No surprises on the day, no forgotten details.

Recognize agency partners

See exactly how many events each agency has brought you this year. Negotiated rates, preferred vendors and booking patterns are all tracked, so you can reward loyal partners and spot your best referral sources.

Client returns after years

Even if it's been three years, their full history is intact: past menus, vendors they loved, special requests, pricing. Pick up exactly where you left off and make them feel remembered, not treated like a stranger.

What is a CRM for event venues?

It's a client database that thinks like a venue: contacts and companies linked to events, quotes and conversations. Open a record and you see what this client has hosted with you, what they spent and what they liked — not just an email and a phone number.

Records build themselves, with no manual entry. Contact details arrive with the inquiry, companies are enriched from their domain, and the history updates with every event. The CRM stays accurate precisely because nobody has to fill it in.

That's what changes for a returning client: the regular is recognized from the first call, the partner agency is valued properly, and the allergy noted two years ago resurfaces on the day.

How the client history builds itself

  1. 01

    The inquiry creates the record

    First message, first contact — the record is created with the inquiry, contact details included.

  2. 02

    The company gets enriched

    Logo, industry and size are pulled from the domain, and contacts from the same company are linked together.

  3. 03

    Every event adds to it

    Quotes, emails, notes and events attach themselves to the record as the team works.

  4. 04

    The client comes back

    You open the record: the whole history is there. The conversation picks up where it left off.

Why not a generic CRM?

A generic CRM can track opportunities, but not private-hire bookings. It knows nothing about spaces, holds, function sheets or deposits. Getting it anywhere near your day-to-day means a long configuration project, and then the maintenance that follows.

Joinways comes with the business built in: hold and confirmation statuses, a calendar per space, quotes linked to client records. Your team is using it in the first week, with no integration project.

Frequently asked questions about contacts and companies

What is on a contact record?
Name, email, phone, linked company, every event they've held with its dates and status, internal notes and the activity history. The essentials, at a glance.
How does company enrichment work?
Enter a domain and the logo, industry and size are pulled in instantly. The profile also shows every contact, every event and all the revenue linked to that company.
Can I import my existing contacts?
Yes, from a CSV file. And you can export your data just as easily, at any time.
Do records fill themselves in?
Mostly, yes. Contact details arrive with the inquiry, company profiles build themselves from the domain, and the event history updates on its own.
How do I spot critical notes, like an allergy?
Every note your team adds is visible the moment you open the record: allergies, access needs, VIP preferences, past complaints. No surprises on the day.
Can I save my filters and sorts?
Yes. Saved views keep your custom filters and sort orders, so you're one click from your partner agencies, your regulars or your top clients.
How is Joinways different from a generic CRM?
A generic CRM tracks abstract opportunities; Joinways thinks in inquiries, events, spaces and dates. The client record shows past bookings, quotes and conversations, not just contact details. And there's nothing to configure to make it fit events — the way venues work is already built in.
Can I track revenue per client or per company?
Yes. Every company record shows the events hosted and the total revenue attached, so you can spot your best clients and the agencies that bring you the most events over the year.
What happens when a client comes back years later?
Their history is intact: past events, quotes, notes, preferences. You pick the conversation up where it left off, and the client feels recognized rather than treated as a stranger.
Where is my clients' data hosted?
In the European Union, in Frankfurt. Joinways acts as a data processor under the GDPR and a data processing agreement (DPA) is available on request. The details of access controls, encryption and sub-processors are published on our Security page.
A client asks me to delete their data. How do I do it?
A contact profile can be deleted right from Joinways, and your data exports to CSV at any time: to answer an access request as well as to leave with your data.
Can I manage my vendors (caterer, DJ, florist)?
Vendors live at the event level, in its function sheet: name, role, phone, email, with a block adapted to the event type. Everyone knows who's on site on the day. There is no reusable vendor directory across events yet.
