# Trade Show App | Exhibitors and Booth Map | GoodBarber

[https://portalstorage.ww-cdn.com/misc/1717091616207_31-membership_trade_shows_exhibitions_vid1_processed.webm](https://portalstorage.ww-cdn.com/misc/1717091616207_31-membership_trade_shows_exhibitions_vid1_processed.webm)

Publish your trade show app

# Trade show app: exhibitors, the booth map and the conference program in your show's own app

## Visitors look up an exhibitor, find it on the map and keep the talks they care about; exhibitors find their setup instructions in an area reserved for them.

Your trade show or fair gets a mobile app of its own, built with no developer: the list of exhibitors, their booths placed on the map, the conference program, notifications during the show and an exhibitors' area opened by group.

## Every exhibitor, and where to find the booth

![](https://portalstorage.ww-cdn.com/misc/1712045266954_31-light__users.svg)

### The exhibitor list and the booth map, linked in the app

Each exhibitor has its own listing: business, products, booth number, website and contacts. Also place each booth as a point in the Map section, where it stands in the hall, or publish the hall plan as an image if booths are too close together for the map. Visitors type a name into search, open the listing, favorite the exhibitor and find it again the next day.

### An industry trade show

Hundreds of exhibitors, several halls, a series of talks: buyers plan their visit in the app before they arrive.

### A consumer fair

Home, food, leisure: visitors follow the day's demos and find the right booth without walking the aisles three times.

### A congress with an exhibition area

When the heart of the event is a conference program for an association's members, the congress page is a better fit.

## From industry show to consumer fair, what the app changes

Your show? Enter a handful of exhibitors to see the result; the free trial lasts a month, no card asked.

## The conference program, room by room

### Panels, product launches, awards: every session in the Agenda

Each session takes its place in the Agenda: title, speakers, room, time. Visitors add a talk to their personal calendar in one tap and keep it in their favorites. Every morning, a push scheduled the night before presents the day's highlights; another, sent on the spot, flags a session that changes rooms.

## An area reserved for exhibitors

### Build-up, deliveries, badges, breakdown: instructions visitors don't need to see

Each exhibitor creates an account in the app, and your team places it in the Exhibitors group from the back office. A section then opens for that group only: build-up and breakdown times, delivery access, safety rules, the organizers' contacts. A push sent to the group, “Loading dock B closed until 10 am”, disturbs no visitor.

## Your app, a PDF catalog, or an event platform?

Three ways to present a show's exhibitors, compared point by point.

|                                              | Your app with GoodBarber | PDF catalog             | Event platform          |
| -------------------------------------------- | ------------------------ | ----------------------- | ----------------------- |
| An app under the show's name, in both stores | ✓ native iOS and Android | no, a file to download  | depends on the platform |
| Searching for an exhibitor by name           | ✓ search and favorites   | search inside the file  | depends on the platform |
| Fixing a booth after printing                | ✓ at any time            | no, it must be reissued | ✓ yes                   |
| Alerting visitors during the show            | ✓ push notifications     | no                      | depends on the platform |
| What you pay                                 | a fixed subscription     | layout and printing     | depends on the platform |

## On site, the app guides visitors

### A beacon at the entrance to each hall, a QR code on each booth

Under a hall roof, GPS loses track: an iBeacon placed at the entrance triggers that hall's message, “Hall 3: packaging and logistics, talks in the Rhône room”. On each booth, a printed QR code opens the exhibitor's listing through the app's QR code reader; visitors favorite it so they can get back in touch after the show.

## Also in the show's app

### A link to registration

Badges and tickets are bought on your registration site; the app simply leads there.

### Practical info

Opening hours, access, parking, shuttles, cloakroom: articles that are easy to keep current.

### The halls on the map

Entrances, parking lots and shuttle stops, directions included.

### Exhibitor applications

For next year, companies apply through a form; applications pile up in the back office, ready for a CSV export.

### Several languages

For foreign visitors, each listing can be machine-translated.

## AI for your trade show

Two uses, and what they cost.

To guide

### A guide that knows every exhibitor

“Who is showing packaging machines? Where is the awards ceremony?” The Chatbot's answers come from the exhibitor listings, sessions and map; it speaks the visitor's language.

$35/month

To update

### The exhibitor list kept by your AI assistant

Through the MCP server, Claude or ChatGPT keeps the list current: it adds a last-minute exhibitor or corrects a booth number when you ask, spells out the operation and waits for your confirmation.

## The cost of a trade show app

The base is Premium: the show's native apps and its web version. The exhibitors' area also needs Authentication and User groups: take them as options, or move to Pro, where they are built in with no limit on team logins. The Chatbot is billed separately.

| **Premium** · native app and web version          | $55 /month, billed yearly  |
| ------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| Authentication, on Premium                        | $12 /month                 |
| User groups, on Premium                           | $5 /month                  |
| **Pro** · Authentication and User groups included | $105 /month, billed yearly |

Badges and paid tickets stay on your registration site. The App Store and Google Play developer accounts are paid separately, to each store.

## Trade show app: organizers' questions

**### Can visitors buy their badge in the app?**

No, badges are bought on your registration site, opened by a button in the app; the app then looks after visitors before and during the show.

**### Can the booth map be as precise as an architect's floor plan?**

Booths are positioned on a real geographic map: that suits an exhibition park or well-spaced booths. For a hall with tight aisles, also publish the official floor plan as an image, and keep the halls, entrances and parking lots on the map.

**### Can each exhibitor edit its own listing?**

Not directly: team login rights cover the whole app, not a single listing. Exhibitors send their corrections through a form, or your AI assistant enters them through MCP.

**### Can we send a notification only to visitors in one hall?**

Yes, with an iBeacon at the hall entrance: its message shows on phones passing nearby with Bluetooth on. Other sends go to everyone, to a group or to a perimeter drawn around the exhibition park.

**### What does a trade show app come to?**

The Premium plan, plus two options for the exhibitors' area, Authentication and User groups; on Pro, they are already there. Count the Chatbot as extra if you turn it on; the MCP connection is free.

**### Can the app be reused for next year's show?**

Yes. You update the listings, sessions and map, and the app, still on last year's visitors' phones, announces the new edition with a push.
