5 Event Apps for Instant Lead Connection
Tradeshows are an integrated marketer’s single largest budget line item, accounting for up to 40% of your budget. With that in mind, you cannot afford to lose a single lead! With today’s robust lead management apps, you can communicate instantly, even while the leads are still in your booth.
We’ve looked before at how convention apps are now a must for engaging a prospect, and how the advent of tablet kiosks and portable tablet use in the booth allows prospects to engage directly with your content as never before.
The following five companies offer lead capture applications like those previously referenced that can immediately send leads the information most relevant to their pain points—and much more.
Features: Generate questionnaires with a user-friendly interface and in-app tutorials to help you build them. Includes auto-reply email and lead scoring functionalities. Works with or without internet and integrates with an impressive list of email marketing solutions, CRMs, and automation systems. This is a great option if your business does enough events each year to justify the monthly cost.
Platforms: iPad, Android tablets, Kindle Fire, or Microsoft tablets
Pricing: Standard B2B plans run $349 per month for 10 licenses. There is a lower tier model for those who attend only a few events each year, and an Enterprise model for up to 2,500 devices.
