COVID-19 HAS CHANGED THE DIGITAL LANDSCAPE

Pre-pandemic, businesses focused on physical experiences, often leaving digital as an afterthought or ad hoc add-on. The pandemic forced companies to quickly pivot, creating virtual experiences to fill the void of in-person gatherings.

As North America reopens, don’t revert to old business strategies. Digital should be at the forefront of your strategy. Consumers expect more; they need a reason to show up. It’s not enough anymore to provide a trade show exhibit or pop-up event, attendees want to engage virtually, they want to share their experience socially - which ultimately expands your brand reach.

DIGITAL INTEGRATION FROM PRE-TO-POST EVENT NOT ONLY PROVIDES A “COOL” FACTOR BUT YIELDS VALUABLE DATA.

Precursory digital registration equips your sales team with essential participant information. Now your sales rep knows who is attending and their topics of interest. Pre-pandemic, sales and marketing were often segregated and disconnected. By incorporating and utilizing digital strategy prior to an event, everything becomes aligned: strategy, sales, exhibit/event space, etc. This provides a much more holistic experience to your consumer and amplifies your sales initiatives.

Post-event, your sales team will be able to see how often an attendee visits your digital space and proactively reach out with curated topics based on post-event, attendee engagement.
