Our new core group sales menu is all about customization. The content has been simplified to a more a la carte style and the graphic version of the menu has been designed to live in two different formats. The first is a digital flipbook that can be housed either on the venue website or offsite via Issuu.com. The sales team will also be given a more advanced version of Adobe Acrobat which will allow them to add, remove and insert pages into the PDF to create a customized menu kit for each potential client.

FLIPBOOK MENU It is intended that your full menu live online via a digital publication that is hosted by Issuu.com Issuu does offer a free plan but we suggest the Premium plan as it is free of ads and offers more customization options. (https://issuu.com/home/services?r=pricing302) Once the design of your menu is complete, a Curiology team member will provide a PDF that is specifically set to work with the flipbook format. From there your team will be responsible for uploading this PDF to your Issuu account. Issuu will then provide your team with a direct link to the menu online. There is also an option to embed your flipbook menu onto your venue website if your client allows it. To see Issuu in action take a look at this sample menu: https://issuu.com/curiology/docs/ho_gsa_david_l_lawrence_convention__a1d55124289bfb/1

CUSTOMIZED MENU KIT We are currently working with Levy IT to get the group sales team members access to a more advanced version of Adobe Acrobat that will allow them to add, remove and insert pages into this new menu. As an example, if a client is coming in for a breakfast meeting, you will be able to create a custom menu for them that only includes the relevant content. This may just be the cover, introductory pages (welcome & chef bio), the breakfast pages and the non-alcoholic beverage pages. Your team will also be able to use the single page Word templates that Curiology provides to add a proposal, supplemental menus and/or an image gallery to that same PDF. Links to some online tutorials on how to edit PDFs will be sent in the coming days once IT determines the software solution.
