      Vendor Marketplace

      Introducing Vendor Showcase powered by Reposite

      We are excited to introduce the new Vendor Showcase feature for Reposite, designed to streamline and enhance your vendor sourcing.

      What’s Changing?

      This feature reintroduces the "share with vendors" checkbox at the final step of sending a venue RFP in the new CSN planner experience, ensuring seamless connections with vendors through Reposite.

      Feature Highlights:

      • "Share with Vendors" Checkbox:

        • Reintroduction: The "share with vendors" checkbox is back on the final step of sending a venue RFP.

        • Ease of Use: Simply check the box to share your RFP with vendors in various categories.

        • Vendor Categories: All categories are available by default, except Venues & Hotels. You can opt out of specific categories if needed!

      • Automated Email Trigger:

        • Internal Notification: Checking the "share with vendors" box will automatically notify our internal Reposite team.

        • Curation of Reposite RFPs: Our team will curate Reposite RFPs tailored to the event for which the venue RFP was sent.

      • Planner Notifications:

        • Email Alerts: You will receive email notifications with real-time responses from Reposite vendors.

      We believe the Vendor Showcase feature will greatly enhance your experience with Cvent Vendor Marketplace, powered by Reposite. It offers a streamlined, integrated way to manage Vendor RFPs and communications. We look forward to your feedback!
