No. Chatbots answer questions. Our agents take actions — booking appointments, sending emails, following up with customers, checking calendars. Think of it as your most reliable employee, working 24/7.

Do I need to be technical?

Not at all. We handle the setup. You just use your email and calendar like normal. If you can check your inbox, you can use your AI agent.

What if it sends something wrong?

Every consequential action goes through your approval. Your agent drafts responses, books appointments, sends follow-ups — but nothing goes out without you saying yes. You're always in control.

How much does it cost?

We don't publish pricing because every business is different. But we'll give you a fixed price on the call — no surprises, no hidden fees, no monthly lock-in. Starter setups from £1,500.

What if it doesn't work for my business?

30-day money-back guarantee. If your agent isn't saving you time within the first month, you get a full refund. No questions asked.

Can it handle care home enquiries and family communications?

Yes. Care homes are one of our strongest verticals. Our agents handle initial enquiries from families searching for care, book viewings and assessment visits, send follow-up information packages, and manage ongoing family communications.

How AI Agents Help Event Venues Capture Booking Enquiries Out of Hours

The Event Venue Enquiry Problem

Event venues — whether wedding barns, conference centres, or corporate spaces — live and die by their enquiry response speed. A couple planning their wedding browses venues at 10 PM after work. A corporate events manager sends enquiries at 7 AM before their day starts. A charity coordinator calls during lunch about a fundraising gala.

If your team doesn't respond within the hour, that enquiry is already cooling — or worse, they've moved on to your competitor.

Why Event Venue Enquiries Are Different

Event venue enquiries aren't simple "Can I book a room?" requests. They're complex, multi-variable conversations:

Date availability: Is the venue free on their preferred date? What's the backup date?
Guest count: 50 guests or 500? This changes everything — room allocation, catering, staffing
Event type: Wedding, conference, gala dinner, product launch — each has different requirements
Budget range: Are they realistic about pricing, or shopping below market rate?
Decision timeline: Wedding couples book 12–18 months ahead. Corporate events often need 4–6 weeks
Viewing preference: Do they want an in-person tour, virtual walkthrough, or brochure first?

What an AI Agent Does for Your Venue

A Propel AI agent isn't a chatbot that sends brochure links. It's a trained booking assistant that handles the entire qualification and scheduling process:

1. Answers Every Call, 24/7

The phone rings at 9:47 PM. Your office closed at 5. The AI agent answers in a natural, warm voice: "Thank you for calling [Venue Name]. I'm your virtual assistant. How can I help with your event today?" It then gathers: event type, preferred date range, guest count, budget indication, and contact details — all in a 3-minute conversation.

2. Qualifies Leads Automatically

Not every enquiry is worth a viewing. The AI agent scores leads based on: budget alignment (are they in your range?), date availability (is their preferred date free or close to it?), event type fit (do you even host that kind of event?), and decision urgency (are they shopping or ready to book?). Hot leads get flagged for immediate follow-up. Cold leads get nurtured with automated email sequences.

3. Schedules Viewings Instantly

Once a lead is qualified, the AI agent checks your calendar and offers available viewing slots: "I can offer you a private tour on Thursday at 11 AM or Saturday at 2 PM. Which works better?" The booking is confirmed, a calendar invite is sent, and your venue manager gets notified — all without human intervention.

4. Sends Personalised Follow-Up

After every call, the AI agent sends a follow-up email with: a summary of the conversation, venue brochure PDF, viewing confirmation (if booked), pricing guide (if budget-appropriate), and a calendar link to reschedule if needed. This keeps your venue top-of-mind while your team focuses on events already booked.

GDPR and Data Compliance

Event enquiries often involve personal data — dietary requirements, accessibility needs, guest lists. Propel AI is fully GDPR compliant: all data is encrypted at rest and in transit, conversation logs are stored securely with access controls, client data is never used to train models, and full audit trails are available for compliance reviews.

Is This Right for Your Venue?

Ask yourself:

Are you missing calls after 5 PM or on weekends?
Does your team spend hours on phone and email follow-up?
Are you losing bookings to faster-responding competitors?
Do you want to offer 24/7 enquiry handling without hiring night staff?
Would you like your team focused on events, not admin?

If you answered yes to two or more, an AI agent will transform your venue's enquiry handling.

ROI: What One Extra Booking Per Month Is Worth

For a mid-sized wedding venue charging £5,000–£15,000 per event, one additional booking per month covers the AI agent cost 10x over. For corporate venues with £10,000–£50,000 event packages, the ROI is even faster. The question isn't whether you can afford an AI agent. It's whether you can afford to keep missing enquiries.
