  • If you would like to link an individual to a Sponsor booth, the individual must already have a User Account created.

  • The Lead Capture functionality only works if there is a team member linked to the booth.

  • There is an Event Feature you can Enable which allows you to have the Sponsor logo on the Home Page and the Sponsor page link to the URL that's been input within the the Sponsor's website field, instead of the Sponsor booth.
    To Enable this Event Feature, within the Admin Tools Dashboard navigate to 'Global Setup' then 'Events' the “Events” module and then “Events” via the blue charcoal navigational bar on the left hand side. Then click the pink Event Features button Click the black “Actions” button and then click Event Features from the dropdown to the far-right of the applicable Event. Scroll down to Find (CTRL+F/Command+F) 'Home Page Sponsor Images Link To Sponsor Website'.

    • This option is commonly used when an event has a company that is both a Sponsor and an Exhibitor. Rather than have two booths to build and monitor, the company can input their Exhibitor booth URL in their Sponsor Website field, so when a User clicks the Sponsor logo, it takes the User to the Exhibitor booth instead of the Sponsor booth.
