Sales teams use it to book meetings before the doors open, marketing teams build invitation and follow-up campaigns, and account managers check which existing customers are planning to attend. Records can be grouped by role and company size so each team works only with the contacts that matter to it.

Lists are delivered as a spreadsheet (CSV or Excel) that can be imported into common CRM and marketing tools. Each record keeps the company, the contact, the role and the link to the event, so segments can be rebuilt at any time.

Most teams start four to six weeks before the opening day, when buyers are planning their visit and agendas are still open. A second wave during the show and a follow-up in the week after it usually bring the best response.
