2011 International CES Exhibitors Identify Hot Leads with Experient SWAP Smartphone Lead Retrieval

Jan. 6, 2011 - PRLog -- Twinsburg, OH – Exhibitors at the 2011 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the world’s largest technology tradeshow, will be using SWAP, the next-generation smartphone-based lead retrieval system that eclipses all other systems.

“SWAP creates immediate advantages for exhibitors at this huge event,” said Shawn Pierce, president of Experient’s Registration & Housing Services division.  “It increases efficiency because each exhibit staff member has his or her own lead device in hand to quickly capture lead data. When you’re talking about a show that draws more than 125,000 industry professionals, availability and speed are extremely important. Plus, leads can be captured anywhere in Las Vegas during the show, like dinners, parties, sessions or chatting in the hallways and follow-up can begin immediately.”

Lead data is reported in the easy-to-access DecisionPoint™ dashboard, which is updated within moments of user activity.  With the expanded information provided by DecisionPoint, management can track lead productivity and quality for each exhibiting booth staffer.

“We think exhibitors will be very excited about the SWAP system and comprehensiveness of the DecisionPoint reporting,” said Pierce.  “When you have a show with this many attendees, it is imperative that exhibitors can quickly and accurately sort leads by attendee demographic including buying authority and purchase timeline. We’re making it easier than ever to collect better data and identify the hottest leads so that exhibitors can get a leg up on the competition.”

Since CES is spread across 1.4 million net square feet of exhibit space with events taking place all over the city, it’s an advantage that the iPhone and Android native SWAP apps also work in offline mode, eliminating dependence upon continuous cellular connectivity.
Experient has excelled at providing the registration services for CES since 2003. The Experient EventXL™ registration system is one of the very few systems that can handle a show of this magnitude and the only one that can integrate seamlessly with both smartphone-based lead retrieval and traditional lead retrieval units.
