Ensuring exhibitors are happy is crucial for a successful event. How can you effectively manage your time and resources for them? 

Event ticketing software is designed to make things easier and better for exhibitors and event managers. It offers a bunch of features that cater to the different needs of event planners and exhibitors.

From registration to booth add-ons, take a look at the features available with iVvy Event Ticketing Software you can use to create a smooth and enjoyable experience for attendees, exhibitors, and stakeholders. 

Why event ticketing software needs exhibitor management features

Ticketed events software should include features to enhance event management processes while improving the overall experience for exhibitors. This includes:

• Easy registration and booth assignment

Exhibitor features make it easy for exhibitors to register and get automatically assigned a booth, saving event managers more time on administration tasks. 

• Greater customisation and flexibility

Event managers can personalise the event experience for exhibitors by adding optional extras like power supplies or promotional materials tailored to specific booth types. 

• Efficient data collection

By using forms for exhibitors to fill out, event planners can easily collect important information like company introductions and liability details, making sure all necessary data is gathered efficiently. 

• Enhanced communication

Exhibitor features of event planning software facilitate better communication between event organisers and exhibitors, allowing for the easy addition of extra attendees or provisions. 

• Valuable insights

Tracking exhibitor categories and demographics provides valuable insights into the types of businesses participating in the event. This data can inform future event planning and marketing strategies. 

• Improved event experience

By offering a range of features that cater to exhibitors' needs, event management software enhances the overall experience for exhibitors, leading to higher levels of satisfaction and engagement. 

iVvy Event Ticketing Software features for managing exhibitors

 

Creating exhibitor categories 

iVvy's event ticketing software includes a feature for managing exhibitor categories, enabling you to save time and effort on event organisation. With this tool, you can add a list of business categories into the system, allowing exhibitors to easily choose their category during registration.  

This helps you keep track of the different types of businesses attending your event, providing you with valuable insights into your participants. It's a great way to manage your exhibitors more effectively and understand your event's demographic makeup.  

Assigning booths to an exhibitor 

Booths are automatically assigned to exhibitors when purchased through the registration page on your event website. However, iVvy's ticketing software also allows you to easily add an exhibitor on their behalf. This flexibility ensures smooth booth assignment, even in cases where exhibitors face difficulties or require additional assistance.  

By allowing administrators to manually add exhibitors, iVvy ensures that no participant is left out due to technical issues or other challenges. This feature enhances attendee satisfaction by providing a seamless and supportive registration experience, ultimately contributing to the overall success of your event.  

Booth – optional extras and add-ons 

You might want to offer optional extras for event booths that exhibitors can purchase. With iVvy’s ticketed events software, you can easily add additional items, such as ‘Powered Site’ or ‘Exhibitor Satchel’. These extras can also be customised to be available only to certain booth types. For example, if you have standard and double booths, you can specify which options are available for each type or make them available for both. This allows you to cater to the unique needs of different exhibitors, enhancing their experience and potentially increasing event revenue. 

Booth files 

If you want to upload files for a specific booth type or individual booth, such as dimensions or included amenities, you can easily add booth files and specify which booth they are available for. These booth files can serve multiple purposes, from providing detailed information to exhibitors to ensuring everyone has access to necessary documents. This feature of iVvy event ticketing software helps streamline communication and ensures that exhibitors have all the information they need at their fingertips. 

Adding attendees to an exhibitor registration 

At any time, one of your exhibitors might decide to bring an extra person to help them on the day of the event. While exhibitors cannot add extra attendees to their registration through their login after it has been completed, they can easily reach out to you for assistance. You can then easily add the additional attendee to their registration on the exhibitor's behalf, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free experience. This also enables you to have greater insight into attendee numbers for catering purposes,  

Exhibitor booth submission forms 

If you need to gather information from your event exhibitors, such as an introduction to their company or public liability information, iVvy event software will enable you to upload a form for them to complete. Once forms are submitted, you can easily run reports to access and manage this information, ensuring you have all the necessary details at your fingertips. This feature streamlines the process of collecting and organising exhibitor information, making it easier for you to stay informed and prepared. 

Spend less time on admin, more time on your event

Managing exhibitors well comes down to having the right tools in place before the event starts. iVvy's ticketing software handles the administrative side: booth assignments, add-ons, forms and attendee changes, so organisers can focus on running a good event rather than chasing paperwork.
