Introducing the Grip smartphone application to optimise retailer and manufacturer presence at Glee 2019
Glee Connect – the exhibition’s new AI-powered event ‘matchmaking’ platform for smartphones and desktops – is now live!
Designed to provide an unrivalled matchmaking solution to help suppliers and retailers get the most out of their time at the show, Glee Connect – created by market-leading experts, Grip – will offer benefits for both exhibitors and retailers, utilising a platform that has already proved its worth at many leading events across the globe.
Available for iOS and Android platforms, as well as desktop applications, Glee Connect is designed to bring together suppliers with retail visitors. Benefits for exhibitors include offering a powerful new way to generate more leads, as well as managing meetings with new, potential and existing customers. ‘Team’ functionality means all Glee meeting activity and correspondence with buyers can be found in one location, making it easy to allocate tasks across your team. The app is also fully integrated with Outlook, Google Calendar and Apple iCal, making it even easier for all parties to stay up-to-date on appointments.
Visiting retailers using Glee Connect will be able to better measure – and even increase – their ‘Return on Time’ spent at the show, through personalised exhibitor recommendations, and an easy to use meeting scheduling function. The Glee app will also include an overview of all of the exhibition’s wider educational content and seminar programmes, helping retailers to plan their trip around Glee all from the palm of their hand.
