Exhibitor Success Intelligence

Pre-scheduled. Human-verified.
Pipeline-attributed.

Profile 100-300 attendees pre-event, secure 12-15 VP+ booth meetings, enrich leads with buying
center maps post-event. Deliver 3-5X conversion vs. walk-up and €2-5M qualified pipeline.

Strategic Context

Most exhibitors arrive at trade shows without pre-scheduled meetings or attendee intelligence. We profile attendees 6-8 weeks pre-event,
secure 12-15 confirmed VP+ booth meetings, and enrich all leads post-event-typically producing 3-5X pipeline
conversion and €2-5M qualified pipeline per major event.

What It Solves

€30K-€200K booth spend. Zero pre-scheduled meetings.
Pipeline attribution impossible.

Badge scan chaos produces 100-300 unqualified leads. Manual enrichment delays follow-up 2-4 weeks.
Field marketing teams invest €30K-€200K in booth space without pre-event intelligence-producing
unqualified conversations, attribution gaps, and 2-4 week follow-up delays.

Booth teams arrive without pre-scheduled decision-maker meetings

Exhibitors rely on walk-up traffic without confirmed VP+ appointments—wasting booth team productivity on unqualified conversations with tire-kickers instead of researched target account prospects.
Report Icon

Generic attendee lists prevent targeted pre-event outreach

GDPR-anonymized exports and outdated contact databases lack role validation, buying center context, and account intelligence—making pre-event meeting scheduling and personalized outreach impossible.
Report Icon

Post-event badge scans produce 100-300 unqualified leads

Badge scan exports require manual research to validate roles, identify decision-makers, and map buying centers—creating 2-4 week follow-up delays that miss conversion windows.
Report Icon

Pipeline attribution remains impossible without source tracking

Exhibitors cannot demonstrate which booth conversations converted to opportunities or revenue—making future event budget decisions political rather than ROI-based.
Report Icon

Booth productivity averages 40-60% lower without pre-qualification

Sales teams spend time on students, competitors, and unqualified visitors without pre-event intelligence identifying VP+ decision-makers from target accounts with budget authority.

How it works

Profile attendees 6-8 weeks ahead. Schedule VP+ meetings.
Brief booth teams.
Enrich post-event leads. Map buying centers. Track pipeline attribution.

Pre-Event Attendee Profiling (6-8 Weeks Before)

Research 100-300 registered attendees to validate roles, map buying centers for target accounts, identify tech stack and recent activity signals. Score prospects on buying authority, account fit, and conversion likelihood.

Pre-Scheduled Booth Meeting Coordination

Outreach to 40-60 VP+ decision-makers from target accounts to secure 12-15 confirmed booth appointments. Provide booth team with briefing materials including account intelligence, persona-specific talking points, and recommended discussion topics.

On-Site Booth Team Intelligence Briefings

Deliver day-of materials with confirmed meeting schedules, account summaries, and prioritized walk-up target list. Enable booth team to maximize productivity with researched account context and conversation priorities.

Post-Event Lead Enrichment and Buying Center Mapping

Validate roles and contact data for all booth badge scans. Research company intelligence for top 20-30 accounts and map buying centers showing key decision-makers, influencers, and budget authority chains.

Follow-Up Sequencing and Pipeline Attribution

Build persona-specific follow-up messaging prioritized by conversion likelihood. Track pipeline attribution by source (pre-scheduled meetings vs. walk-up traffic vs. post-event outreach) in CRM for ROI measurement.

Multi-Event Portfolio Optimization

Track sponsor participation across portfolio events to identify cross-event opportunities, multi-property packages, and portfolio-level relationships—maximizing lifetime sponsor value.
