The Address Collective boost market share by securing chainwide agreements and corporate RFPs with Cendyn Corporate Sales
CHALLENGE
As an independent hotel group, The Address Collective faced limitations in its sales and marketing bandwidth and reach. Establishing a strong corporate client base and optimizing sales processes—from lead generation to contract management—was a key priority for the company to drive corporate bookings and revenue. However, doing so in-house across multiple properties strained internal resources.
Additionally, The Address Collective opened new locations, making it a priority to drive business to these properties.
SOLUTION
The Address Collective engaged Cendyn GDS Connect and Corporate Sales services to streamline sales processes, lead generation, and contract management to gain more business. They tapped into Cendyn’s longstanding partnership with 700+ corporations to significantly expand their corporate booking potential and market presence for each property destination.
“Cendyn’s focus on data-driven sales strategies ensures that we can maximize our revenue potential from corporate clients. Cendyn empowers our sales team with the tools and support to drive a strong corporate relationship focus.”
