The Challenge
APS runs large, complex scientific meetings that require accurate exhibitor registration, booth assignments, and clean data flowing into their CRM.
Before ExpoGenie, APS relied on manual processes and a legacy system that created friction for both staff and exhibitors.
Key challenges included:
-
Manual exhibitor registration workflows prone to errors
-
Time-consuming booth assignment handled by staff
-
Difficulty syncing exhibitor data to the correct accounts in their CRM
-
Frustration from exhibitors due to lack of self-service tools
“We were managing exhibitor registrations manually, which led to errors and frustration for both our team and exhibitors.”
Dan Cooke, Exhibit & Sponsorship Manager
The Solution
APS partnered with ExpoGenie to modernize exhibitor registration and booth management while integrating directly with their existing CRM (Nimble).
With ExpoGenie, APS implemented:
-
A self-service exhibitor portal for booth staff registration and task management
-
Interactive booth selection, allowing exhibitors to choose their own locations
-
Direct integration with Nimble CRM, ensuring clean, accurate account mapping
-
Automated workflows that replaced manual data entry and follow-ups
“The integration between ExpoGenie and our Nimble CRM has been a game-changer.”

“We’re now able to seamlessly capture exhibitor information and tie it directly to the right accounts in our system.”

Self-Service Booth Selection
Exhibitors now select their own booth locations, removing hours of manual work for APS staff.
“ExpoGenie’s booth selection process has been a huge time-saver for us. Exhibitors love the ability to choose their own booth locations.”
