SpeedRFP Testimonials

“Adding SpeedRFP to my web site was the best thing I did this year. My

online group leads have increased at least 30%, and beyond group

leads, we’ve seen significant volume increase in catering leads as well.

Our entire sales team loves the system and they find it incredibly easy to

use. New customers find us and we get new opportunities we didn’t

have before using SpeedRFP. And, current clients prefer to send their

leads through SpeedRFP because it saves them time.

The responses are easy to review and respond to.... I appreciate the simplicity and will continue to use it as often as I can. With Elite Meetings behind it, it has to be the best!”
