What it Feels Like
“The value of AI is the time and attention it gives us back. What we do with that attention is where hospitality happens.”
Your team gets time back, and your clients get more of their attention.
Discovery that stays with you. Organize every conversation so your salespeople know exactly what matters to each client and which questions to ask next.
Proposals in their own words. Create proposals and pitch decks that mirror what the client told you and reflect what they said mattered most.
Confidence before the call. Practice the pricing conversation so every salesperson explains the investment clearly and calmly.
Follow-up worth opening. Draft a thoughtful next message in moments, then make it specific and human.
A clear view for leaders. Dashboards that connect to your CRM, so you see your pipeline and coach with confidence.
Your Buyers Plan With AI.
Your Team Can Serve Them With It.
Where Ai Fits
Rainmaker builds AI tools with your leaders and trains your salespeople to use them with ease. Every tool is designed around your venue, your menus and the way your team sells.
"I can't say enough about working with Margaret at Rainmaker."
- Tracy Vessillo, President - Puff 'n Stuff Catering
"We are a large, successful premier event caterer in Florida and have been for many years. We were looking to rebuild our sales program from the bottom up. Everything from a new commission schedule, new goals for the sales teams, new marketing and social media strategies to training for the whole team. These are just some of the things Margaret helped us create. I would even say that Margaret's contributions benefited the company beyond just sales and marketing. As a result of working with Rainmaker, we now have a focused business plan moving forward. Margaret even worked with us on recruiting and hiring a new VP of Sales and Marketing that has ensured we carry Rainmaker’s programs forward and beyond. Rainmaker is well worth the investment.
"Partnering with Margaret and Rainmaker Sales and Marketing has been a transformative experience both personally and for my business."
- Chris Sanchez, Managing Partner - The Lux Group
"As the owner and CEO of a rapidly expanding catering and hospitality company, I’ve seen firsthand how Margaret’s guidance has driven us to new heights. Over the years, Margaret has evolved from a consultant into a trusted mentor and dear friend. Her unwavering commitment to our success is reflected in her deep involvement in every initiative. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure our team thrives. By bringing the latest best practices to the table, she ensures we remain at the forefront of the industry."
"Words cannot begin to express the love and admiration I have for Rainmaker Sales and Marketing, and especially for Margaret."
- Brooke Maier, JDK Group, Floral and Event Design Coordinator
"Her unwavering passion for people, sales, and the events industry is truly palpable. Margaret is a constant source of inspiration, reminding me daily to be a better sales representative and, more importantly, a better person. She radiates positivity and continuously motivates her teams to be the best version of themselves through innovation and thoughtful connection. I genuinely wouldn’t be where I am today without her invaluable guidance and support."
"Margaret at Rainmaker Sales & Marketing is hands down the best of the best!"
- Lizzy Desibia, COO - Russell Morin
As the COO of a large premier catering company in New England and a member of Leading Caterers of America, I've had the pleasure of working with some fantastic sales and marketing coaches, but Margaret is truly in a league of her own. Her ability to spot sales and marketing opportunities in everyday life is nothing short of remarkable! She consistently brings something new to the table, never letting her content get stale, exactly the kind of tactic every great catering salesperson should be using. Every conversation with her sparks fresh ideas that are so relevant to catering and events. She’s been an inspiration not only to me but also to my entire team. If you’re looking for someone who’s creative, insightful, and has an unmatched passion for what she does, look no further.
Margaret is a true game-changer!
"I started working with Margaret about a year ago, and my life has not been the same since."
- Matt Haggerty, DSquared Hospitality
"Margaret brings an energy that is truly unmatched. Her decades of experience come through in the way she listens with intention, offers strategic and thoughtful solutions, and helps you view challenges with clarity and confidence. Margaret blends kindness with accountability, guiding you to grow while reminding you that meaningful work becomes fulfilling when you genuinely love what you do. Everything you are striving for is already within you. Margaret simply helps you unlock it."
Margaret Brower is the trusted advisor behind some of the country's leading catering and venue sales teams.
Her first sales mentor was her dad, who showed her that every great sale begins with genuinely caring about the person across the table. Two decades of leading multimillion-dollar sales organizations later, that lesson still shapes everything she teaches.
Today she works side by side with owners, directors of sales and every salesperson on their teams to book more of the right events, raise conversion and build systems that keep working long after the session ends.
What you get is someone to plan with, dream with and build with, right there in the work beside you.
