I've spoken with several event planning pros in person, and quickly learned that they're not our target. We built this because we wanted to making finding the perfect venue for your event simple as possible, with software that is easy to use and nice to look at. The users that we're targeting are non-event planning pros - or average joes/janes who are looking for a venue for their bridal shower, baby shower, wedding etc... and would like to consider and reach out to several venues at once to find the right one for them. With venuevortex.com we are accomplishing that. Albeit, because the market is so broad it's difficult to work out a marketing strategy. Perhaps we can target each segment e.g. people who are looking for venues for their bridal shower, then wedding etc... but where do we find these people?

+1 to this, try talking to your potential users maybe?

I'm not a potential user but I clicked through to your Toronto listings and the pricing/other info on the page seems misleading and/or doesn't match what I'd expect to see when comparing venues. eg. Can I book this space for 2 people at the $35/pp price you list?? Obviously not.

edit: by the way, this seems like a potentially good idea. "AirBNB for venues" it's fairly obvious there is a market for this. But you probably need to do a better job of understanding that market.
