iLeads Lead Retrieval App Now Available on iTunes

iLeads is now available on the iTunes store – check it out: http://tinyurl.com/yeselwt

To see how easy it is to use: launch the app and enter event access code: 1006, click on the event and enter new lead badge number: 8188

This new app, iLeads allows exhibitors to collect trade show leads using an iPhone or iPod Touch. It is also featured in this week's edition of Tradeshow Week.

iLeads offers substantially lower operating costs for show managers – no shipping, no on-site techs, no training, and equipment maintenance costs are eliminated. Some event organizers do not offer lead retrieval because of the complexity and cost involved in producing 2-D bar code badges. iLeads does not require a bar-coded badge, saving time and money for organizers and eliminating common barcode complications. iLeads requires only a simple number to be placed on attendee badges.

There are other benefits - terminal availability is not an issue. There are never too many terminals on hand, never too few. Even if an exhibitor decides at the last moment to use lead retrieval, he can purchase an iPod Touch for about $200 at a local electronics retailer.

Also sign up for the brief (10 minutes) demo webinar on April 9th. You'll have a chance to learn about iLeads directly from Bartizan's president, Lew Hoff.

iLeads Lead Retrieval App Debuts New Icon

iLeads is the trade show industry’s first lead retrieval app, it's super easy to use and it will be available nationwide at events starting April 1st. Bartizan Connects is actively introducing iLeads to show organizers and getting an enthusiastic response. They expect it to become the trade show standard. iLeads Lead Retrieval app is expected to be released in April.

The icon for this app was created by app-bits.

The icon's concept is based on the most common way (and least effective) of collecting leads, the old fashioned fishbowl. Lead retrieval is like an electronic fishbowl.

After a few concepts and iterations, and some real care gone into the glass effect on the bowl, the icon above was produced.

Apple is on a Roll

It used to be said that it was Sinatra's world - the rest of us just live in it. Now it seems that it is Steve Jobs' world - and the rest of us just live in it. As I write this, the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT is less than an hour away. Will it meet our sky-high expectations? For example, look at Fast Company's prognostication here.

If it (whatever "it" is that will be presented) is compatible with the iPhone and iPod touch, "it" will become part of Bartizan's iLeads lineup. Stay tuned.

Yes, Apple is on a roll. Record Mac sales. Record iPhone sales. Record iPod Touch sales. The iPod Touch is kind a stealth product. Lots of people don't know why Bartizan views the Touch, rather than the iPhone, as the preferred iLeads platform. Here's why: It does almost everything that the iPhone does, requires no wireless contract with AT&T or anyone else and costs just 200 bucks. Tough to beat!

An example of why the Touch is so terrific: My wife is a total technophobe. She has never so much as turned on a computer, let alone sent an email message. She has been a regular patron of Play-by-Play, an outfit that peddles discount tickets to Broadway and Off-Broadway shows. In December Play-by Play informed her that it was discontinuing phone service. Starting January 1 she would have to order tickets online. She panicked. What if she could not reach me to ask (order?) me to go online to purchase her tickets? What would she do? The solution? An iPod Touch on which I added the Play-by-Play site to the homepage. When my wife discovered how easy it was to use Play-by-Play on the Touch, she was elated.

Bartizan Introduces iLeads Mobile App for iPhone and iPod Touch

The world’s first lead retrieval app eliminates exhibitors need to rent expensive equipment at tradeshows.

Bartizan Connects announced the upcoming availability of its new, first-of-its-kind iPhone App for tradeshow lead retrieval.

With features such as voice and written notes, surveys and qualifiers, along with the ability to integrate with Salesforce.com and tracking the number of leads gathered throughout the show, the application is expected to be available for free download in April 1, 2010.

“With iLeads the emphasis is no longer on the hardware and all of the headaches related to equipment rental, now it’s all about providing exhibitor’s access to detailed lead information that brings buyers and sellers together. There will be no shipping costs, staffing costs will be reduced and maintenance costs are eliminated,” said Lew Hoff, president, Bartizan Connects.

With this ground-breaking app, exhibitors can capture, qualify and manage tradeshow leads anywhere. They can also attach a photo, voice note and a written note to leads. With the iPhone or iPod Touch exhibitors can follow up instantly with tradeshow leads gathered with a text, email or phone call and send updates right from the tradeshow floor to headquarters, customers and prospects. Exhibitors can also check out lead profiles on Google, LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook.

Bartizan will debut this app at the premier conference for event professionals, Expo! Expo! Conference, at the Georgia World Congress Center, Atlanta, Ga., on Wednesday, December 9, 2009 from 11:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. The event attracts an average audience of 2,500 exhibition and event managers from around the world. Bartizan will be giving product demonstrations of the iLeads app at Bartizan’s booth 1130.

“Trade show organizers, attendees and exhibitors across a range of industries and show profiles, plus our focus groups, have made it clear: exhibitors like lead retrieval but dislike having to rent high-priced lead retrieval equipment,” said Elizabeth Mazei, executive vice president & COO, Bartizan Connects. “They do not have sufficient time to learn how to use the features of a rented lead retrieval device. With the introduction of this app, we have made lead retrieval more cost effective, easier to use…even fun.”

To download iLeads iPhone App when it is available in April, iPhone and iTouch users may go to the Apple App Store within iTunes and search for 'iLeads'.
