Event Apps
Event organizers PRODOCOM have a unique opportunity with an event app to offer attendees an interactive alternative to the program book, and to connect to them in a more direct way. Deciding to get an event app can be an investment that requires many considerations such as cost, benefits and effectiveness. Many events use printed programs and abstract books. Printed media for an event can present an array of challenges for the event organizer: What to do with program changes? How to deal with resources? How many units to print? Going paperless with an event app means that program updates are made easily and can be immediately communicated to attendees. Cutting down on printing is both beneficial for the budget and for the environment. Attendees can access and navigate the full program, as well as view additional multimedia resources such as presentation slides and videos. Quickly finding a session, exhibitor stand or speaker bio is simpler than ever. The event venue is easy to navigate with multiple floor plan views and clear markers. As an event professional, you can stay connected to your community and engage them in ongoing discussions. Interactive sessions, news and publications are just a few of the things that you can notify attendees of before, during and after the event. With an event app you are able to send notifications to all users at any moment. For sponsors, your event is a way to gain exposure to a specific target group. An event app offers a new and more direct channel for sponsors to reach that target audience and for a longer period of time, since the app can be installed and used before, during and after the event. An event app can provide you with (real-time) event information like nothing else can. This information can be used to make adjustments during your event and plan for your next event to ultimately improve the event experience and ROI. An event app enables you to adapt to the ever evolving needs of your attendees. In 2017, attendees want more than just to consume information. Today’s attendees want to participate and be more involved. An event app can make this is possible. It gives delegates the means to communicate, collaborate and interact during the event, making their event experience more complete. Event apps are gradually becoming an industry standard with clear benefits to both users and organizers. Are you ready to take the next step?

Sales Apps
It’s important to define what your salespeople need, but even more important to define the needs of the customer. What does a typical sales encounter look like? How is it structured, or not structured? What are the customer’s expectations? What do they already know? All these things matter when you’re defining the needs for a mobile sales support app. The app should accommodate your selling scenarios, not the other way around. Define the selling experience and identify what your team needs to be successful. And remember, these customer touch points shape the perception of your brand. A good sales app helps position your salesperson as the expert. If you are just loading your sales literature and a linear presentation onto an app you are doing your team a disservice. Your investment in mapping out the selling experience defines what is needed to drive dialog with a customer. Provide the right tools to your team. Don’t just replicate content that’s on your website. It’s important to remember your clients are much deeper into the customer journey if you’re sitting in front of them. And there’s a good chance they’ve done some homework on your website. Use the app to expand on what’s available on your site, tell a compelling story and demonstrate your ability to deliver on their needs. Interactive tools, custom ROI calculators, demonstration videos and worksheets are just a handful of ideas. Make sure your app allows you to quickly navigate to the right content on the fly without disrupting the flow of conversation. Don’t limit the use of a mobile app to just the sales meeting itself. Many companies are using their sales apps to deliver training, new product information, service bulletins and other relevant content. Connecting your mobile app to your CRM system can streamline data entry for your sales people. PRODOCOM recently developed an app that builds a proposal for the sales person based on info captured through the app. These tools are all designed to make the sales person more productive and streamline processes that take them away from selling.

Members Apps
A membership app helps you retain members by offering them a convenient way to interact with your business, improving communication and creating a more personal experience. To keep your members coming back, you need to try to make it as easy as possible for them to visit your facility and use your services. A mobile app makes it simple for members to browse or engage at any time. Plus, most people already use their phones for scheduling and like the convenience of viewing their club or organisation, too. A mobile app can also simplify front desk check in by letting members scan a barcode on their phones – which means they don’t need membership cards! These added conveniences show members that you understand their on the go lifestyles. Keep your members up-to-date on what’s happening at your facility so they feel valued and involved. Send news, special offers and event information via push notifications or in-app announcements. Be sure to update them on closures and cancellations with a quick message to their phones. A great way to keep engaged with your members is to offer specials, deals and competitions that can keep you front of mind as well as encourage members to visit on a more regular basis. Contact PRODOCOM today to further discuss how you can get an app for your Members.
