Caterers, in their words

Quotes that book more events.

I used to dread Sunday nights, quote night. Now I send three options from my phone before I leave the venue. We booked two weddings last month we'd have lost to a faster reply.
Rachel BrooksRachel BrooksOwner, Wildflower Wedding Catering
The open-tracking is the killer feature. I see a client reading my quote. That's when I call. My close rate nearly doubled.
Marcus DaleMarcus DaleFounder, Dale & Co. Corporate Catering
Our quotes look so good now that people assume we're the expensive option, and book us anyway. We raised prices 15% and nobody blinked.

Why caterers switch

From the Word-and-PDF grind to won deals.

The old way

Sound familiar?

Most caterers still create quotes as Word files. The formatting breaks, prices get dug out of old documents, and every change means exporting a brand-new PDF.

  • Slow and clunky
  • Lose clients
  • Waste time and energy
The new way

CaterSend is the fix.

Sending a quote is so fast and clear that you can focus on what you do best: the food and your clients. No bloat, just what wins you more bookings.

  • Easy and fast
  • Sell more
  • Save time and energy
How CaterSend works

Good questions

Frequently asked questions.

Is CaterSend hard to learn and set up?

No. We’ve deliberately left everything extra out so it stays easy to learn and use. It runs in your browser with nothing to install, and you’ll pick it up in a few minutes. If you can send a text, you can build a quote. You don’t have to enter all your items and menus up front: add them as you go, and send your first quote right away.

Can I still send a quote by email?

Yes. Share the quote link wherever you already talk to clients: email, text, or WhatsApp. It opens the same everywhere, so you can keep working the way you always have and still get CaterSend’s speed and open-tracking.

Can I add my own branding to a quote?

Your quote looks like your company’s quote. Add your logo, colors, and a cover photo so every quote is polished and consistent, not a form, and not an ad for someone else’s software. Your clients see you, not us.

How does a client accept a quote?

They open the quote from the link and accept with one tap. No login, no app. You’re notified the moment they do. Prefer the old way? Accepting over email still works too.

Can I edit a quote after I’ve sent it?

Yes. If a client asks for changes, edit the items, quantities, or prices directly and the same link updates instantly. No new file, no “corrected version.”

What if I want to stop using it?

You’re not locked in. Cancel anytime. Your quotes, client details, and menus stay yours; you won’t lose them. And you can try everything free for 30 days before you pay a cent.
