Visit San Antonio Scales Convention Sales With More Speed, Control, & Personalization

The Challenge

For Visit San Antonio, the proposal process is more than just selling meeting and hotel space in a great destination. Each proposal must be customized, positioning  San Antonio’s venues, hotels, and experiences with the specific audience, goals, and requirements of the customer’s meeting or convention. 

The industry is highly competitive and big business. San Antonio’s visitor economy reached $23.4 billion in 2024 and supported more than 150,000 local jobs, clear evidence that meetings and  conventions play a major role in the city’s economy.

But as proposal volume increased, maintaining an efficient and consistent process while delivering tailored, high-quality proposals became more challenging.

"We had multiple versions of proposals that quickly became outdated, with no clear system for tracking which ones were in use."
Stacey Carroll
Marketing Manager, Conventions + Meetings

San Antonio recently rose from No. 7 to No. 4 in ConferenceDirect’s annual destination rankings, reinforcing the city as a premier meeting destination and the need to build on that success. 

In today’s fast-paced environment,  success requires both responsiveness and the ability to deliver polished, professional proposals.  

"Our current proposal system made it challenging to deliver both efficiency and the level of customization required for each submission."

VP, Sales

The Solution

With DIGIDECK, Visit San Antonio replaced fragmented files with a centralized Master Deck Library, giving their Marketing Department a single place to manage approved branded templates, messaging, and design elements such as high impact images and videos.

That shift did more than improve proposal development. It helped make proposals  part of Visit San Antonio’s broader modern sales infrastructure. Instead of relying on disconnected files assembled manually, proposals were integrated into a structured workflow that streamlined creation, customization, and delivery.

Marketing can now govern the core content centrally, ensuring stronger brand consistency and better control over what goes to market. At the same time, Sales can personalize presentations in real time for the audience, opportunity, and specific requirements of the customer.

This allows the team to operate with more agility while staying within approved brand guidelines and messaging.  They can work within a system designed to support how modern revenue teams actually operate, with centralized content, repeatable workflows, and tools that help them move  opportunities forward more efficiently.

“With DIGIDECK, we’ve elevated both the speed and quality of our proposals.”
