Tracking Speakers, Sales Personnel, Temp Staff and other Resources for your Events

Based on user feedback and popular demand, we just released the ability to add Resources (non-users) to your ExhibitDay workspace.

A Resource is a “non-user” in your ExhibitDay workspace (i.e. no ExhibitDay account / no access to your Events). Essentially, they are people who participate in your trade shows and exhibits, but don’t have the need to log into your ExhibitDay workspace; like: speakers, 1099 sales personnel, contractors, specialists, and temporary staff.

Just like Users, Resources can be added as event attendees (under each event’s [Staff] tab), or they can be assigned to travel reservations
(under each event’s [Travel] tab).

You cannot assign tasks to Resources. And, Resources have no ability to log into your ExhibitDay workspace.

How to Add Resources to your Workspace

In order to add a Resource to your ExhibitDay workspace, click on the “Users & Permission” link in the top settings menu and click the [Add] button under the [User & Permissions] tab. There, you’ll see the option to either invite a new User to join your workspace, or add a Resource (non-user).

Create a free ExhibitDay account and start tracking the speakers, 1099 sales personnel, contractors, specialist, and temporary staff for your events.

Tracking Miscellaneous Expenses in your Annual Events Budget

Based on user feedback, we just released new functionality to track non-event-specific miscellaneous expenses in your annual budgets. These are trade show and exhibit expenses that are incurred against your annual event budget that cannot be attributed to a single event — for example: new booth furniture, or, updated print brochures.

You can manage your miscellaneous annual expenses under the [Other / Miscellaneous Expenses] tab of the Annual Budgets page in ExhibitDay.
