Exhibitor Registration Tips'n'Tricks
Click for most current booth availability.
Please be aware that the booth purchase is NOT a registration for a person. The booth admin, aka purchaser of the booth, does NOT receive a badge. You must register yourself as booth staff to receive a badge and admittance.
Steps for a Successful Event
- Purchase your booth(s). Enter the Exhibitor Registration knowing your top three booth location preferences.
- Choose emails carefully. When purchasing the booth, you will be asked for a corporate email and a cc email. As the booth purchaser, aka booth admin, you are not registered. To attend in person and receive a badge, you must use a different email from the corporate email you provided during the purchase. Our recommendation, if you intend to be there in person, is to use a general corporate email like marketing@csmantech.org for the corporate email and your work email address for the cc email. The cc email can be used again. The booth purchase is tied to the corporate email which limits the use of the email address to one use. You will be able to use the cc email address you provide to register yourself through the Exhibitor Portal links, as well as the cc email for the rest of the Exhibit Booth Staff.
- Watch for The Exhibitor Welcome Email. This email will arrive 24-48 hours after your booth purchase. It will include your company's link to the Exhibitor Portal. Please log in to get started with your assigned tasks, including registering any booth staff that will be at the booth.
- Register your on-site team. Each booth is allotted 4 Exhibit Booth Staff registrations through a link provided in the Exhibitor Portal. You may register them yourself or you "share the link" with your team to register themselves.
- Complete all tasks. Your Exhibitor Portal will provide you with some tasks to complete. One of them is to make sure your exhibitor profile is accurate and as you want. Your profile is your attendee-facing site and allows for communication with attendees.
- Book hotel rooms. In your confirmation email and your Exhibitor Portal Welcome email, you will be provided a link to book the hotel at our contracted rate.
- Order your furniture. Your booth will come with a table, chairs, wastebasket and wifi. To order any additional furniture, please use the GES link provided in your emails.
- Staff your booth for Monday evening's Exhibitor Reception, Reception is held 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm and is a very popular event for the attendees. It is suggested that you are prepared for the event with a staffed booth.
We really hope this helps prepare you for a successful show. Please, reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
