Yes, there really is an app for everything and everyone, including today’s SHOT Show exhibitor. Witness the Concierge Elite app, available now from the Apple App Store, Android Google Play or Windows App Store. Offered by Freeman Co., NSSF’s Las Vegas exhibition partner, this app allows exhibitors instant access to:
- Service request submissions
- Current and previous order listings
- Freight tracking and delivery notifications to you and other staff members via e-mail, text message, or both
- Ordering additional furniture or other booth accessories, resolution of missing order items and scheduling of booth cleaning services
- Shipping labels
- Express checkout from the show; set up your outbound freight care—your material handling agreements—before the show’s even over.
As most exhibitors know, coordinating getting your booth materials to the Sands Expo Center and set up, then tearing it down and moving it off the show floor once SHOT is over, is often more work than actually being at the show. That can be exacerbated when show setup logistics require you to spend your time on the phone or running to the show’s customer service desk—time you’re losing that could be better spent on things like networking with customers and closing sales. The Concierge Elite app simplifies and streamlines those necessary behind the scenes facets of putting on and having a successful show experience and, best of all, this app is free for our exhibitors.
