Tips

This is how you make a good profile site and stand out!

Set your goals

As an Exhibitor you want to stand uot of the crowd and to be remembered by the visitors. On top of that you should think about what you want the visitor to do straight after they have visited your profile page. For example do you want to direct them to an article, a usefull guide or go to your webshop?

Clarify topicality and customer benefits

For you to success online you need to combine the elements of traditional event marketing and content marketing. The content needs to be relevant, benefit the visitor and targeted. So don’t just content with uploading your logo and generic business presentation. Engage your visitors with interesting offers and interactive content. Tip! You can update your profile page and catalog item when ever you want!

Tips how to utilize the profile page

Chat: You can’t be available all the time and answer chat messages instantly. Add a text to your profile page and tell when you are going to be answering to chat conversations. You can turn off the chat when you are not available.

Online meetings: If you want to meet people online use your existing online meeting tools. For example if you want to meet online paste the meeting link to the chat message.

Public online presentations: Just like with online meetings utilize your existing tools. Book a meeting time from your calendar and present the links on your profile page. That way visitors can join your Teams, Meet or Zoom presentation.
