    The modules Sponsors/Exhibitors are identical, but can also be used to present Partners, Products etc. The Sponsors/Exhibitors module in Eventbuizz offers comprehensive tools for managing partnerships, product showcases, and promotional opportunities within events.

    Sponsors are organizations or companies that provide financial support to the event in exchange for exposure and promotional opportunities. The Sponsors module allows event organizers to manage sponsorships efficiently. 

    Exhibitors are organizations or companies that showcase their products or services at the event.The Exhibitors module enables organizers to handle exhibitor registrations, booth assignments, and logistics. Exhibitors can upload information about their products or services, including descriptions, images, and videos, which attendees can access through the event app or website.

    Show sponsors on app right column

    These settings seem to pertain to managing how sponsors are displayed within an app’s right column. Let’s break down each option:

    None: This option likely means that no sponsors will be displayed in the right column of the app. Users selecting this option won’t see any sponsor/ exhibitor content in the right column of the app.

    Show all: Choosing this option will display all available sponsors in the right column. It means that every sponsor/exhibitor associated with the app will be shown to users in that section, without any filtering based on categories or specific selections.

    Show by category: This setting allows users to view sponsors based on specific categories. For example, if there are different types of sponsors (e.g., technology, fashion, food), users can select a category, and only sponsors belonging to that category will be displayed in the right column.

          • After selecting one of these options, users may be prompted to further specify their preferences, such as selecting a category or choosing specific sponsors, depending on the option they’ve chosen.
          • The “Category” dropdown likely allows users to filter sponsors based on predefined categories, enabling them to narrow down their choices and view sponsors that align with their interests or preferences.

    Show selected sponsors: This option lets users manually select which sponsors they want to see in the right column of the web app. It provides users with the flexibility to customize their experience by choosing sponsors that are of interest to them.

    When you select this option, a new option will appear in the menu when you click on the three dots icon next to the sponsor/exhibitor list. The name of this new option will be show in right app (right column).

    Overall, these settings offer users control over the type and extent of sponsor content they see in the app’s right column, providing them with a more personalized experience.

    The settings for the default display when users navigate to the sponsors page are crucial for organizing and presenting sponsor information effectively. Here’s a detailed explanation of these settings:

    Default Display Settings for Sponsors Page

    1. Listing by:

      • Name: When this option is selected, sponsors will be listed alphabetically by their names. This is useful if users are likely to search for sponsors by their company or brand name.
      • Category: When this option is selected, sponsors will be grouped and listed by their category (e.g., technology, healthcare, education). This is useful if users are interested in finding sponsors within a specific industry or type of service.
    2. Sort by:

      • Name: Within the chosen listing method, sponsors can be sorted alphabetically by their names. This ensures a straightforward, alphabetical order that is easy for users to navigate.
      • Category: Within the chosen listing method, sponsors can be sorted by their category. This will organize sponsors within each category alphabetically, providing a structured and logical flow for users looking within specific sectors.

    This setting is used to automatically send a blind carbon copy (BCC) of emails containing leads generated through the app to a specified email address.

    When an email is sent to a sponsor or exhibitor with leads (potential customer or client information), a copy of this email is also sent to the BCC email address without the primary recipient knowing.

    Example Scenario

    Imagine during an event, several attendees visit a sponsor’s booth and share their contact information to learn more about their products. When the app sends out emails to the sponsor containing these leads, the info@eventbuizz.com email address will receive a BCC of each of these emails. This allows event organizers to keep a record of all leads distributed to sponsors and exhibitors, ensuring that no lead is missed or lost in communication.

    By configuring this setting, event organizers can effectively manage and oversee the lead generation process, ensuring efficient follow-up and maximizing the event’s impact for sponsors and exhibitors.

    You can add multiple BCC email by clicking on Add bcc email button.
