Booth Layout
Machine Assignments
Lead Capture
We will be using snapAddy to capture leads in the booth. The process has been streamlined to ensure lead entry is quick, easy, and consistent for everyone.
Please be sure all required fields are completed, including:
- Customer motivation and relevant details
- Product category
- Lead rating (hot, warm, or cold)
Only scan the primary contact who should be added to Salesforce. If multiple contacts are involved, please note who the primary contact is to avoid creating unnecessary or duplicate leads.
Note: Due to license limitations, not everyone will have direct access to the app. I’ll be reaching out soon to those who will be assigned a license. If you don’t have access, you can ask someone who does to scan for you, or visit the reception desk for scanning assistance.
