For many small businesses – especially catering companies – client communication often starts on social media.
Customers send details like menu preferences, number of guests, and event locations directly in Messenger Requests.
That’s convenient for clients, but for managers, it quickly becomes chaotic.
Important details get buried in chat threads, and team members spend time copying and pasting information into monday.com.
To solve this, catering teams now use Capture for monday.com to bridge the gap between Messenger integration and task management.
🍽️ The Real Example: A Catering Request via Messenger
A customer messages the catering company:
Hi! 👋
I’d like to order catering services for 20 people on October 30.
Could you tell me the price and what’s included?
Here’s the address: Green Street 12, Event Hall “Luna.”
This conversation contains all the information the team needs:
Menu type: Premium Menu
Allergies: None
Number of guests: 20
Location: Event Hall “Luna”
Instead of manually transferring this data, the manager uses Capture for monday.com to convert the Messenger request into a structured task.

Step 2: Create a Template in Capture
In Capture, the manager creates a new time-saving template and choose which fields to fill automatically
💡 Tip: Once created, this template can be reused for all future orders or ideas. In Capture, you can’t create new fields – you can only select from the existing ones already set up in your monday.com board, choosing where the task will be saved.
💡 Step 3: Fill in Client Details
Once the template is ready, the manager copies details from the conversation and fills the fields:
Allergies: None
Event Location: Green Street 12, Event Hall “Luna”
Menu Type: Premium Menu
Number of Guests: 20
Payment Status: Payment on location
Date: October 30, 2025

“Catering Green Street 12, Event Hall ‘Luna’”
