In short

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 or business cards, adds notes, saves each lead on the phone as it is scanned, and exports CSV or vCard records for follow-up.

Best for
Exhibitors who need qualified leads, not just a stack of badge scans
What to evaluate
  • Notes on every lead
  • Business card capture
  • Fast follow-up exports
How it works

From floor plan to sold show floor in four steps

  1. 1Build the floor planUpload the layout you already have or describe it to the AI Floor Plan Assistant, then place, number and size booths with snap-to-grid.
  2. 2Set booth types and pricesCreate booth types with their prices and mark booths open, reserved or sold. AI-assisted dynamic pricing can move prices inside the limits you set.
  3. 3Publish and sellPublish the interactive map to your event site. Exhibitors pick a space, check out and get their invoice without a back-and-forth email.
  4. 4Run the showExhibitors manage profiles, staff and assets in their portal, attendees find booths on the live map, and sales reports update as you sell.

From a scan to a lead you can act on

01

Scan Once, Capture Context

Scan the badge or capture a business card, then add notes so the record explains the lead.

02

Saved on the Phone as You Scan

Each lead is saved on the phone the moment it is scanned, and a repeat scan of the same badge is flagged as a duplicate.

03

Available During the Show

Leads are on the phone as soon as they are scanned, and staff can export them during the show rather than waiting for a file after the event.

04

No Duplicate Outreach

A repeat scan of the same badge is flagged, so a phone does not save the same lead twice.

05

Ready for Your CRM

Exports come as a CSV file or vCard contacts that import into the CRM your team already uses.

Customer stories

What our customers say

See how event teams use MapD to run smoother events.

MapD is the best option for our expos. Our clients love the registration process! Data organization and exports are simple and easy. Fast reliable customer support feels like family. The wide variety of tools available for us allow us to grow and still feel well accommodated.

Experience ExpositionsKyle MichaudPresident @ Experience Expositions

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!

Taliah WaajidTa'ron JoynerExhibitor Acquisitions Manager @ Taliah Waajid

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.

KinsleyCasey HinerMeeting Architect @ Kinsley

The support of our vendors and partners allows us to put these events together, so again, thank you. I hope you have enjoyed this year's Virtual A-Day! The platform is amazing and so easy to use. :)

DFWAEAlyssa MeekEvents manager @ DFWAE

I am really excited about this. The staff met with me this morning and we all LOVE the platform. People are already filling out their booths.

Maine Insurance Agents AssociationLisa VereggeDirector, International Trade and Development @ Maine Insurance Agents Association

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!

Texas Society of CPAsRori ShawExecutive Director @ Texas Society of CPAs

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.

Georgia Municipal AssociationYalonde TannerShow Manager @ Georgia Municipal Association

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.

Multi Family NorthwestLaura WebbEvent Coordinator @ Multi Family Northwest

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.

FAQ

Your questions answered

Common questions about event lead capture app.

Have more questions? 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?

Right away. Each lead is saved on the phone as it is scanned and can be exported during the show.

Can leads go to our CRM?

Yes. Leads export as CSV or vCard for import into your CRM.

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.
