Event venues live and die by their ability to respond fast, qualify accurately, and move prospects toward a site visit. But when inquiries flood in from all directions — and your team is juggling walkthroughs, setups, vendors, and event-day execution — leads slip, response times slow, and planners move on.

Hermetic AI built Mia to catch every single inquiry the moment it arrives. She engages instantly over text, gathers details, checks fit, books tours, and follows up — automatically, consistently, and perfectly on-brand.

The Event Venue Sales Reality

  1. Inquiries come in faster than you can reply: Requests land in website forms, social media messages, phone calls, and third-party listing platforms. Planners don’t wait. The venue that responds first usually wins the conversation.
  2. Every event has its own complexity: Before a tour even makes sense, you need date, time, guest count, event type, budget, space needs, and AV or décor requirements. Chasing these details manually wastes time and leads to uneven experiences.
  3. Tours don’t get scheduled quickly enough: Tours are the number-one driver of booked business. But getting one on the calendar often turns into a slow back-and-forth while other venues are already giving tours.
  4. Follow-up is inconsistent: Most venues lose winnable clients not because they said no — but because the follow-up never happened.

What an AI Agent Does for Event Venues

Mia is your always-on events coordinator — the one who never misses a lead and never forgets a follow-up.

  1. Instant SMS engagement: The second an inquiry comes in, Mia texts a warm greeting, acknowledges the event type, and asks a few focused questions (date, headcount, budget). You instantly become the venue that answers first — without adding staff.
  2. Venue-specific qualification: Mia uses your real rules: capacities, minimums, restricted dates, package types, and setup limitations. She screens for fit, offers alternatives when needed, and hands off only qualified leads to your team.
  3. Automated tour scheduling: Once a lead looks strong, Mia shares real-time availability, lets planners pick a time, and sends confirmations and reminders automatically. You increase the number of tours you host each week without lifting a finger.
  4. Reliable, on-brand follow-up: After inquiries, tours, and proposals, Mia keeps the momentum going: sending check-ins, deadline reminders, and “just making sure you saw this” nudges, and re-engaging softer leads.
