Lead Retrieval in the CMI Events App
Lead retrieval helps you easily capture, qualify and connect with potential buyers who attend the show. You can also use the scanner to capture fellow exhibitor badges. Download the CMI Events app available 8 weeks pre-show to scan on your device at the event.
BENEFITS
Easy To Use – The Lead Retrieval Scanner in the app is as simple as point and scan so you can spend your time talking to potential buyers and not trying to scan their badge.
Accurate Information – Since lead data is linked to the event registration data, you will have access to the most up-to-date information available; even if updated during the event.
Flexible & Reliable – Since lead retrieval is captured via the app on your phone, you have the freedom to scan a lead pretty much anywhere.
Fully Supported Onsite – Lead retrieval personnel are on-site throughout the show with fast and friendly service, located at the registration desk. They’re always ready to answer any questions you may have.
