Empowering Swiss Precision: How SendSites Transformed Proposal Creation Across Switzerland

When Switzerland Convention & Incentive Bureau (SCIB) set out to improve how proposals were created and shared across the country, they didn’t go it alone. True to the spirit of Swiss collaboration, SCIB brought together six of the country’s most respected convention bureaus and venues - spanning Zürich to Davos - to find a modern, efficient, and elevated solution.

What they found was SendSites.

The Challenge: Disconnected Processes, Dated Deliverables

Despite representing some of Europe’s most iconic destinations - Montreux, Davos, Basel, Zürich, St. Gallen, and Lausanne - each bureau faced a common challenge: their sales proposals were manually assembled in Word or PowerPoint, then converted into large PDF files. These files were cumbersome to update, difficult to personalize, and lacked any meaningful tracking. For teams responsible for selling world-class cities, venues, and experiences, the tools weren’t living up to the brand.

The goal was clear: streamline the process, remove friction, and create something more aligned with the prestige of Switzerland’s destinations.

The Solution: Elegant, Customizable, Trackable

Each of the six bureaus adopted SendSites independently but all quickly realized the same thing: they now had the ability to create faster, more elegant proposals that reflected the sophistication of their destinations.

Instead of cobbled-together PDFs, they were sending sleek, personalized proposal links. Teams could track who opened them, what sections were viewed, and adjust content in real time all while maintaining full control over visuals, language, and partner highlights.

“SendSites allows us to customize the proposal to fit each customer’s needs, showcasing our partners, the convention locations, and further highlights of our region in the best possible way.”

Results: Faster Turnaround, Better Insights, Elevated Presentation

With support from Simpleview and SendSites, each bureau received dedicated training to ensure a smooth onboarding process. From building custom templates to structuring content libraries, the teams were quickly up and running - confident in their ability to create elevated, on-brand proposals without delays or technical hurdles.

“What do I love most about SendSites? Faster proposals.”

A Seamless Onboarding, Powered by Partnership

Across all six destinations, the benefits were immediate:

  • Faster response time for client inquiries
  • Greater personalization for each proposal
  • Deeper analytics, showing what mattered most to recipients
  • Real-time editing, even after a proposal was sent
  • Brand-forward presentation that matched the high standards of Switzerland’s destinations

“You can easily adapt texts and images, even if the proposal link has already been sent out. Based on the number of clicks, it’s possible to determine which topics are particularly relevant for recipients.”

A Platform That Matches the Experience

From Montreux’s lakeside elegance to Davos’ alpine allure, each destination had a story to tell and SendSites gave them a platform worthy of their brand. For these forward-thinking bureaus, the shift to SendSites was more than a process improvement. It was a move toward smarter, faster, more visually impactful sales with no compromise on quality.

"With SendSites, the speed and ease of creating and customizing proposals feels limitless. For us, it opens up endless possibilities for client-facing documents."

”We chose SendSites because of unlimited templates and flexibility, especially a dual branded template. [Competitor] was terrible with customer service and swore we could do a dual template and come to find out we couldn’t. Also seeing a competitor already using and loving your product and saying his clients rave about it."
