On the vetting process, Kari Anna had this to say: “Before choosing Event Temple, Strawberry investigated and screened all the major solutions within the hotel sales & catering landscape. Before deciding, we ran extensive 18-month pilot programs and personally met with Event Temple’s existing clients. In the end, Event Temple was selected as the preferred solution because it is a robust sales and catering platform, and connects so easily with the rest of our technology stack. We are confident in Event Temple’s ability to help our hotels.”
