This Venga Dine Integration is Part of Emma’s Partner Program to Build Best-Breed Tech Stack for Restaurant Marketers

Emma, a provider of best-in-class marketing software and services, announced integrations with guest analytics platform partner, Venga, featuring their restaurant industry solution Venga Dine. With the only 3rd party OpenTable-POS integration on the market, Venga unlocks actionable visit, purchase, and social data so restaurants are empowered to nurture guest experiences and advance operational performance. This innovative integration, available through Emma’s leading email marketing and automation platform, demonstrates how users can deliver more personalized guest experiences, to drive repeat guests and consistently increase average spend per cover.

“Restaurants today are challenged to provide premier guest experiences. It’s easy to overlook key details, like authentic personalization, while also keeping guests satisfied and encouraging repeat restaurant goers,” said Winston Lord, Co-Founder and Chief Evangelist of Venga. “Emma’s integration with Venga is the only solution that truly empowers restaurants to maximize guest data and sincerely understand the individual needs of their guests.”

“In the restaurant industry, it’s challenging to find an integrated, single view of our guests and how that relates to the collective. Being able to tap into Venga and see if the loud voice represents the whole, helps us to direct our focus,” said Lauren Keeton, Director of Digital Marketing at Fox Restaurant Concepts. “We’ve been able to analyze feedback and insight on things that matter so dearly to our hospitality hearts, and what’s more important is that we can provide our teams on a shift-by-shift basis singular knowledge on their upcoming guests to better serve them and provide an experience that goes above and beyond.”
