This scanner will enable you to track leads during the solutions pavilion as well as breakout sessions (you must use a separate scanner for each to be able to differentiate between the breakout and the customer contacts built during the solutions pavilion). Once you scan the solution provider badge, youll receive that customers reference information in the form of an email 24-48 hours after the show. Your marketing manager will receive a follow up report post event to track ROI. In addition to the MicroScanners, we offer qualifier sheets for each manufacturer.

Shipping Provider Information Exhibiting manufacturers must directly engage with Global Events to utilize their services. Additionally, all shipping fees including material handling will now be the responsibility of each vendor. Ingram Micro will no longer coordinate or be responsible for any vendors freight or shipments to any Ingram Micro event. We recommend that you schedule inbound and outbound shipping with Global Events to all Ingram Micro events. Doing so will assure a much better exhibiting experience for the vendor partner by providing the security of consistent service from a company having intimate knowledge of the Ingram Micro shipping schedule, and the flexibility to react to last minute changes. In order to initiate the shipping process with Global Events, please contact a Global Events representative via e-mail at shipingram@globaleventsmgmt.com, or by phone at 516.365.8822. If you choose to ship directly to the hotel, you will be responsible for all associated fees, as well as pick up and deliver from the business center. Please visit the registration site for details. https://www.signup4.net/public/ap.aspx?EID=SOLU30E&OID=147 Attendee Profile: To the right you will see the make-up of our attendees based on titles. This should help you construct your customer approach during the event.

Tips for Solution Pavilion Success

Remember: This event is only a tool and your success will depend on how this tool is used. Engagement opportunities with customers meet with them during breakfast, lunch and/or networking activities. Manufacturers are STRONGLY urged to bring demonstrations to the Solutions Pavilion, not just literature. Come equipped with a map of field rep geography and contact information for your field representatives. Stand in front of your table instead of behind this creates a more engaging, interactive environment. Always approach the resellers by first identifying the underlying end-user business issue and then addressing the reseller question whats in it for me?
