Trouble, oh we got trouble

There are those who just cannot get enough snow – kids and dogs, in particular. When Bubbles, our Maltese, jumps into a pile of snow, she would be invisible but for her two eyes. In the immortal words of Professor Harold Hill of Music Man fame, when we have snow like we have had lately in many parts of the country, those of us in the exhibition and events industry have

“Trouble, oh we got trouble,
Right here in River City!
With a capital “T”

Yes, we do have trouble. People and equipment have trouble getting to the event. One type of equipment that can be particularly vulnerable is lead retrieval equipment. Due to availability and cost, it cannot arrive too soon, nor depart too late.

What to do, what to do? iLeads is the answer. No equipment to ship. No one needed on site to distribute and collect said equipment. If nothing else, why not ensure that you have a back-up at your event by making iLeads available? It can be ordered on site, even after the show has begun.

Bartizan’s Year in Review, an iLeads Product Launch

Bartizan Mobile Lead Retrieval

They All Laughed…

“They all laughed at Christopher Columbus
When he said the world was round
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said that man could fly

They told Marconi
Wireless was a phony
It’s the same old cry”

No, I don’t mean to imply that iLeads is an innovation on the same scale as the innovations celebrated by Gershwin, but there were a few snickers when Bartizan introduced iLeads at Expo! Expo! 2009. Well, guess what? At Expo! Expo! 2010 there were at least three iLeads look-alikes being touted. Nobody is laughing now!

Top Seven Reasons You Need iLeads at Your Show

  1. Lead retrieval captures attendee’s full registration data – purchasing authority, buying timeline, company size as well as other useful data.
  2. You exhibit at shows to gather leads – so you should manage leads in a quick, digital way.
  3. Never lose a lead by dropping a business card.
  4. Salespeople back at the office can follow up on leads while you’re still at the show.
  5. Leads should have qualifiers and notes so you remember the interaction.
  6. iLeads lets you capture leads at parties, dinners and luncheons during the tradeshow too.
  7. Offers easy database upload after the show.

It’s All the Rage: Mobile Apps for Meetings

This month in Meetings & Conventions Magazine the cover story is on Mobile Apps for Meetings: What Smartphone Technology Can do for your Attendees.

At Bartizan, we saw this trend coming. This is why we developed the first lead retrieval app for the iPhone, iLeads

After conducting extensive focus groups and surveying show managers, exhibitors and attendees, we took a good, hard look at what the iPhone could mean to our business and we set out to offer the next generation of lead retrieval. The result was the development of a first-of-its-kind iPhone, iPad and iPod touch App for trade show lead retrieval.

As an app, iLeads allows businesses to confront a huge problem they face each time they exhibit: lead follow up. iLeads lets you do it instantly.

Also by using the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch in conjunction with cloud computing, iLeads also eliminates the friction (shipping costs, staffing, capital investment, maintenance and availability) generated by dedicated lead retrieval terminals – the core of our business for nearly two decades.

iLeads Lead Retrieval App a Success at ASAE 2010 Annual Meeting

Last month, iLeads was offered to exhibitors to use at ASAE & The Center’s Annual Meeting & Expo in Los Angeles, California. We were thrilled with the response. ASAE show organizers offered iLeads to exhibitors on their order forms and many exhibitors chose to purchase a license and use iLeads at their booth.

Exhibitors loved how easy it was to capture and qualify leads with notes and surveys, they also liked the ability to collect leads anywhere and anytime during the show, at dinners, parties and even the airport! Many exhibitors already had iPads at their booths so it just made sense to buy the iLeads license.


Here is a short video clip of some of the great comments we received.


Combined with the most popular business and social networking apps, iLeads has become the starting point for a powerful, integrated lead generation and follow-up system.

Show management appreciated the substantially lower operating costs – no shipping, no on-site techs, no training, and equipment maintenance costs are eliminated. iLeads does not require a bar-coded badge, saving time and money and eliminating common bar code complications.
