Many trade show exhibitors and attendees are looking forward to the next Hannover Messe, but they will have to wait a little longer: Due to the pandemic, the trade fair for industrial transformation had to be postponed and will not take place in April as planned, but from May 30 to June 02. However, exhibitor' preparations are already in full swing and the hype on websites is already buzzing.

Digital lead capture with a lead app.

Building customer relationships and establishing new contacts – that's exactly what a face-to-face trade fair does. Any effort is only worthwhile if the obtained and acquired contacts are converted into increased sales. For this purpose, contact data must be properly captured and processed. With more than 225,000 attendees at the Hannover Messe 2019, it was clear that using pen and paper is time-consuming and much more costly. Contact management must therefore be more efficient. With a lead capture app, you can record all leads and contacts directly at the trade fair booth and export them to your CRM system. This not only reduces the work on site but also in the further follow-up from the office.

Digital contact management at the Hannover Messe by scanning badges.

Even nowadays, business cards are still all the rage at trade fairs. At the Hannover Messe all trade fair attendees will receive a badge with a lanyard on request. This means that there is no need to use paper and pen and exhibitors can simply scan the business card, badge, or visitor ticket and save the data recognized by the app. The key advantage of the badge is not only to easily capture contact data but also the variety of information: Alongside the name, position, and company, the industry, and size of the company are also stored. As these data are not usually included on business cards, they would have to be entered manually if the app were not used.
