The official lead service

PPAI's 2027 exhibitor checklist lists lead retrieval through SAGE ShowLink or Maritz, with a complimentary or discounted Maritz SWAP app code from your PPAI account manager. Check that checklist and your exhibitor kit for the current offer.

Badges and booths

Visitor badges carry a code for the official lead retrieval apps. Swopi reads the printed name and company and any QR code, and also scans paper business cards.

Tips for exhibitors at PPAI Expo

  • Plan for the early close on Thursday

    Exhibits close at 2 PM on Thursday, January 14. Finish your notes and send leads to the CRM on Wednesday evening.

  • Tag distributors and end buyers differently

    PPAI Expo brings promotional product suppliers and distributors together. Add a one word tag when you scan so each follow-up fits the person.

  • Ignore emails that sell attendee lists

    PPAI says it does not sell Expo attendee lists. Report scam emails to registration@ppai.org and to the FTC, as the PPAI Expo page explains.

  • Use the exhibitor list before the show

    Search the official exhibitor list for partners near your booth and book meetings before January.

  • Send the first emails on Friday, January 15

    The show ends on Thursday afternoon. Send a short email that names The PPAI Expo, the product line and one next step the next day.
