Lead Management

The 2022 ACIPC Conference App features a Lead Management function where you can create questions for your team to ask delegates when they visit your exhibition booth.

How it works

When a delegate visits your stand, representatives can scan the QR code on their name badge and they will be provided with the delegates’ contact details.

Once the QR code has been scanned, your representative can the collect the delegate’s information based on, or guided by, your pre-loaded questions. The delegate’s responses can then be sent back to a staff member in your office or saved for follow-up after the conference.

Representatives must obtain delegate consent before collecting details, so we recommend including a question such as: “Do you consent to receive follow-up communication from our company”.

Your automated message

An automatic email can be created prior to the conference and sent to all delegates whose information has been captured. You can attached a pdf brochure, or the email might just be a simple ‘Thank you for visiting’.

Lead Management Set Up & Accessing Leads

To set up your lead questions, automated email, and lead alert email, please log into the Exhibitor Portal.

Only the main contact (the person managing your booking) will be able to set up the lead questions and emails and access the leads. Note the questions you set up will be available for use by both onsite and online representatives.

To access your leads, follow the steps below:

  • Click on Lead Management
  • Current Leads
  • Click Export at the bottom of the page – this will provide you with an Excel Spreadsheet

Information can be exported and collated at any time during or after the event. Please contact Conference Design (mail@conferencedesign.com.au) if you have any questions regarding the set-up of lead management.

Online Exhibition Listing

Sponsors and exhibitors are encouraged to interact with online delegates via the OnAIR virtual conference platform.

The exhibitor listing will be available throughout the conference where sponsors and exhibitors can meet with and host live presentations for online delegates.

If you would prefer not to allocate staff to the online component of the conference, delegates can contact you by clicking a “Request Info from Exhibitor” button on your exhibitor listing. Once clicked, the delegates details will be sent to you for follow up.
