Event Vendor Management Software Built for Mobile Event Businesses – Flashquotes
Mobile event vendors live on tight timelines and moving parts: leads, quotes, contracts, payments, staff, equipment, and back-to-back events.
Flashquotes is event vendor management software designed to bring everything into one place — so you can run your mobile event business with less stress and more bookings.

Everything You Need to Run Your Event Vendor Business
Flashquotes is quoting/proposals, booking, invoicing, and CRM software built specifically for mobile event operators — from photo booths and mobile bars to coffee carts, caterers, and other vendors.
The platform centers around four core areas:
- **Leads **– capture and manage every inquiry
- **Bookings **– see what’s confirmed and what’s pending
- Events & Calendar – view upcoming work with real-time availability
- **Automations **– forms, workflows, and follow-ups that run 24/7
Client Management & CRM for Event Vendors
Every missed lead is a missed event.
With CRM & lead management, you can:
- Track every inquiry, follow-up, and conversation from first contact to final payment
- Organize leads by status (new, quoted, booked, closed, lost)
- Filter by event type (weddings, corporate events, parties, festivals, recurring contracts)
You always know who needs a follow-up and which channels (website, social, planners, referrals) bring the best clients.
Instant Quoting Built for Event Services
Event vendor pricing can be complex: hours, locations, packages, travel, add-ons, and seasonal rates.
Flashquotes helps you quote faster and more accurately with instant quoting:
- Configure your services once (photo booth, mobile bar, coffee cart, catering, rentals, etc.)
- Add upsells, add-ons, and custom options
- Auto-calculate pricing based on time, distance, units, or guest count
- Generate professional quotes in seconds — not hours
Clients receive a clear, branded quote they can approve quickly, helping you secure bookings before competitors even respond.
Booking & Scheduling That Prevents Overlaps
Double-booking equipment or staff can damage your reputation.
With booking & scheduling:
- Bookings sync with your **Calendar **automatically
- You see real-time availability for key resources and dates
- Confirmed events reserve your services, staff, and equipment
- You can view everything from the **Bookings **and **Events **sections
The result: more organized event days and fewer scheduling mishaps.
Payments & Financials for Event Vendors
Payment Processing
Get paid quickly and consistently:
- Accept cards, ACH, and mobile payments
- Collect deposits automatically at booking
- Offer payment plans when needed
Payments are built into the booking flow instead of being an afterthought.
Invoicing
Turn your approved quotes into invoices instantly:
- Invoices are generated from your quotes
- Automatic payment reminders go out without you chasing anyone
- You always see what’s paid, pending, and overdue
All of this lives under Finance → Invoices, Payments, Payouts, Sales Tax, QuickBooks.
Financial Reporting
Know your numbers across all your events:
- See revenue by service type (e.g., bar, coffee, photo booth, catering)
- Monitor income by event type (wedding, corporate, private, recurring)
- Identify seasonal trends and top-performing services
You can finally make decisions based on data, not guesswork.
Automation & Growth for Event Vendors
Follow-Up Workflows
Most vendors don’t lose business because they’re bad — they lose it because follow-up slips.
With follow-up workflows, Flashquotes can:
- Auto-respond to new inquiries with a branded message and next steps
- Send reminders to leads who haven’t approved their quote
- Re-engage past clients with new offers or open dates
Set up your Forms and Workflows under Automations once and let the system take care of repetitive communication.
Integrations That Keep Everything in Sync
Flashquotes integrates with key tools you already use:
- Google Calendar – sync events and bookings
- **Gmail **– manage communication more efficiently
- **QuickBooks **– accounting sync on the Pro plan
- **Zapier **– connect to marketing, CRM, and back-office tools
On the **Plus **and **Pro **plans, integrations help turn Flashquotes into the command center of your event vendor operation.
Marketing Tools to See Which Channels Work
Stop guessing where your best clients come from.
With built-in marketing tools, you can:
- Track lead sources (website, social media, planners, ads, referrals)
- Measure conversion from lead → quote → booking
- Double down on the highest-ROI marketing channels
You invest where you can see a clear return.
Operations for Multi-Service & Multi-Unit Event Vendors
The more units, services, or teams you manage, the more important operational clarity becomes.
Resource Management
Under Operations → Resources, you can:
- Track equipment (booths, bars, carts, catering gear, vehicles, decor, etc.)
- See what’s booked, available, or in repair
- Assign the right equipment to each event
Staff Scheduling
Under Staff, you can:
- Assign team members to specific events (bartenders, baristas, attendants, chefs, techs, drivers)
- Track availability and roles
- Attach event briefs and checklists so staff knows exactly what to do and bring
Day-Of Execution
Show up prepared for every event:
- Auto-generated packing lists tailored to each event
- Setup timelines based on event start times
- Event runsheets with schedule, responsibilities, and notes
Your team spends more time delivering great experiences and less time putting out fires.
