Why lead capture matters

Booth traffic alone does not produce measurable business results. Exhibitors need a simple method for turning conversations into permission-based follow-up opportunities.

The Lead-Capture Guide explains how to introduce a QR scan naturally, and the ROI Calculator helps estimate what captured contacts must produce after the show.

How LeadSpark works

1. Create your campaign.

Set up a branded visitor experience for a contest or information request.

2. Display your QR poster.

Use a tabletop 8.5 x 11-inch poster stand where booth visitors can see it.

3. Visitors scan. Connect. You get leads.

Visitors complete the landing page and give your team a cleaner follow-up path.

LeadSpark campaign flow

Scan, engage, and follow up from one branded booth moment.

LeadSpark keeps the visitor action simple: a visible QR poster, a branded scan experience, and a lead record your team can use after California Restaurant Show.

Event preparation timeline

Two to four weeks before the event

Define your booth goal, choose a visitor action, and decide whether a relevant giveaway fits.

One week before the event

Finalize staff responsibilities, test the LeadSpark campaign, and print the tabletop QR poster.

Setup day

Place the poster where conversations begin and test the scan flow on more than one phone.

During the show

Invite visitors to scan, add notes while conversations are fresh, and monitor lead volume.

Within 24 hours after the show

Send promised information before interest cools.

Your booth campaign can be live before your next visitor arrives.
