Purpose: To ensure all contacts scanned at trade shows or events via the HubSpot Mobile App are accurately tracked, routed, and followed up on in a timely and efficient manner. This SOP covers the process once a scan is submitted
🧠 Before the Event
Regional Executives:
- Submit Event Title
Send the name of the event to the CRM Specialist so it can be added as an option under:- Campaign Event (Company Property)
- Campaign Event (Contact Property)
- EX: Cedia 2025
- Notification of Additional Attendees
Let the CRM Specialist know if other Sales Reps will be attending.
➤ CRM may need to update user permissions ahead of time for proper scanning access
Open Item: We can prepare “Thanks for Stopping By” templates at this point if we wanted to ensure reach out is prepared when contact is scanned
📲 During the Event
RSE / Show Attendee Responsibilities ONLY
Follow the SOP for Scanning Contacts using the HubSpot Mobile App:
- QR Code Scanner
- Business Card Scanner
Each time a contact is scanned:
- ✅ An automated email is sent to the CRM Specialist
- ✅ A task is created in the "Event Lead Scanned" queue and assigned depending on the cases described above
🔧 Back-End Workflow Process
Once a scan is submitted, a Workflow will trigger:
1. Routing Based on Contact Type
Branch 1: Existing Customer or Lead (Has a Sales Rep)
- The task will be assigned to the Contact Owner (Sales Rep)
Branch 2: New Lead (Lead with No Sales Rep as Owner)
- Assign the task to an SDR
- Assign all to Michael, and he delegates every other to the other SDR's
2. If Lead Was Tagged with a Sales Rep and the Task is Assigned to Admin
Sometimes the RSE’s tag the sales rep in a note, the account will be assigned to that rep
- SDR Must:
- Tag CRM Specialist in the Task Comments requesting the Update
- Re Assign the Task to Sales Rep
- CRM Specialist must:
- Change the Company Owner to the tagged Sales Rep
- Re-assign the task from the SDR to the new rep
- This ensures proper follow-up ownership
📥 Special Note on "RSE Visits"
A backup option exists called "RSE Visit" in case something is scanned outside of an event.
➡️ However, this should only be used as a fallback.
Reps should submit the Contact Form with Lead Option whenever possible for non-event visits. As well as logging their meetings with the RSE Site Visit Type when applicable
