friendlyway Releases Slender Info Kiosk

Version imprimable

In time for the start of the Autumn trade fair season, friendlyway AG recently launched its new ‘Contact Manager’ for the internet kiosk system, friendlyway classic. The slender information kiosk includes a business card scanner integrated into the keyboard extension. The user places his business card on the feeder, the card is drawn in and the address is automatically read into the system. Using the addresses collected, the system offers personalised information and services at trade fairs and events.
 
The major benefit of the new system is the quick compilation of the contact information and subsequent automated management. Thus contacts made at trade fairs can be sent to the company’s office on the same day. There the data can be used to send out information requested by the customer, who can then receive prospects and catalogues before returning from the trade fair.
 
This kiosk can be bought or rented, and the friendlyway partner network offers a service delivering the kiosk to trade fairs, installing it, supervising its use during the event and picking up the system afterwards. Exhibitors do not have to attend to any part of the process themselves.
 
"Trade fair exhibitors do not usually put as much as 1% of their trade fair budgets towards compiling customer contacts. However, nothing’s really more important than winning new customers and providing existing customers with the most current information. Business cards disappear in employees’ coat pockets never to be found again, or important client information is jotted down on scraps of paper which end up in the wash," said Klaus Trox, chairman of the board for the friendlyway AG.
