How do venues get discovered on Cvent—and how can meeting planners book better, faster, and with more confidence?

In this episode of Lobby Talks, we’re joined by Oliver Corser, Account Manager at Cvent, for a behind-the-scenes look at how the platform connects meeting planners with venues around the world. We break down what actually impacts visibility, rankings, and response rates—and how both sides of the sourcing process can work smarter.

Venue sales managers will learn how to optimize their Cvent listings, avoid common RFP mistakes, and build stronger planner relationships.

Meeting and event planners will walk away with practicaltips for writing better RFPs, using underutilized filters, and improving response quality from venues.

We also explore what a great sourcing experience lookslike for both planners and venues, how Cvent is evolving with the future of meetings, and wrap with a fun “Dream Event, No Limits” segment.

If you work in event planning, venue sales, hotel sales,or hospitality, this episode is a must-listen.
