From cold calls to conversions...How Renwick Group doubled down on high-intent leads

Renwick Hospitality Group transformed their event sales approach from time-consuming cold outreach to a proactive lead gen, resulting in their most lucrative buyouts within months of implementing HeadBox.

The problem

Stuck in reactive mode

Renwick Hospitality Group needed help filling two exceptional venues in the heart of New York City; Lulla in Chelsea and The Alderman in Times Square. Both venues can accommodate up to 100-150 guests and are perfect for private dining, corporate events, and exclusive parties.

Despite having prime Manhattan locations that should naturally attract high-end events, Events Manager Lena Block was struggling in NYC's ultra-competitive venue market. The traditional sales approach was proving both ineffective and exhausting.

"Before using HeadBox, we relied heavily on cold outreach or organic business"
Explains Lena Block, Events Manager at Renwick Hospitality Group. This reactive strategy meant countless hours on cold calls that rarely converted, while hoping potential clients would discover their venues organically—leaving significant revenue on the table.

The solution

Taking control of the sales pipeline

Everything changed when Renwick Group discovered HeadBox. Rather than continuing the exhausting cycle of cold outreach and hoping for inbound inquiries, Lena now has access to a live feed of relevant, qualified leads actively searching for venues like Lulla and The Alderman. This shift from reactive to proactive sales has revolutionized their approach to booking private events.

"Now, we get real, high-intent inquiries straight to our inbox, which saves us time and helps us book faster."

Instead of casting a wide net with cold calls, she can now focus her energy on responding to genuine opportunities from event planners who are already actively seeking venues that match what Renwick Group offers.

Lead Feed has transformed Lena's daily workflow, allowing her to take control of Lulla's and The Alderman's event sales pipeline rather than leaving it to chance.

The results

Immediate impact, lasting growth

The impact has been both immediate and substantial. Within just a couple of months of implementing Lead Feed, Renwick Group has already seen remarkable returns on their investment.

"We've booked a couple of our most lucrative buyouts since signing up with HeadBox!"

Lena enthusiastically reports. These high-value bookings have not only covered the cost of their Lead Feed subscription but have created a robust pipeline of exciting opportunities for both venues. The transformation in their day-to-day operations has been equally impressive

"Instead of hunting for leads, we spend our time responding to real opportunities. It's helped us increase bookings and grow faster in a competitive market."

For venue sales professionals operating in competitive markets like NYC, the message is clear: why remain reactive when you can be proactive? Lead Feed has enabled Renwick Group to shift from hoping clients will find them to actively connecting with the right prospects at exactly the right moment.Lena enthusiastically reports.
