What is an event lead capture app?

An event lead capture app helps exhibitors record who stopped by, how interested they were, and what to do next. Map D captures leads by scanning badges, adds qualification notes and interest tags, shows live lead counts by staffer and time, and exports usable records for follow-up.

Exhibitors who need qualified leads, not just a stack of badge scans

MapD is indeed a welcome and needed change for the way we sell booths and handle our awesome exhibitors. With being in our 20th year, we needed a system that would take the guesswork out of exhibitor payments, accounting, floor plan assignments and more! MapD has helped us sell more booths in a shorter time frame and we will most definitely continue to use them!

MapD is one of the most user friendly systems I have found for floor plan software. The customer service received after signing up goes unmatched by any other systems I have used. MapD has truly made my job easier as an Exhibit Manager and helps to promote and sell booth space with the interactive floor plan I can deliver to my vendors.

Map D is an amazing platform and easy to use! We worked with Map D for our virtual annual conference last year and it worked like a charm. When we held our annual conference in-person for the first time in two years, our first choice for our conference app was Map D!

I just came back from show site. This week I had my largest show ever. I had 247 exhibitors and I had 247 happy exhibitors. And a lot of that is a result of they were able to get their badges, update their profile, reach out to me anytime they want to.

Exporting exhibitors is really helpful for me. Fern needs a list of all our exhibitors with their booth number and what size it's going to be. Just exporting that list and getting it to whoever I'm working with at Fern is so incredibly helpful.

I'm probably your only customer who uses it to sell campsites, but it works really well. I just give them a drawing and they put it all together for me. I don't have to do it - it saves me many hours.

Your questions answered

Common questions about event lead capture app.

Request Demo

How is this different from lead retrieval?

It is the same Map D capability described by the way exhibitors search for it. See the lead retrieval page for the full workflow.

When can exhibitors see their leads?

During the show. Captured leads are available in real time.

Can leads go to our CRM?

Yes. Leads export to CSV and connect through the platform integrations.

How is lead capture priced?

Map D prices per event, not per attendee, seat, or booth, so a bigger event does not change the plan price. See the pricing page for current plans.
