Sending New Invitations

There are two types of invitations you can send, Individual and Universal.

  • Individual Invitations – Send an authorization code for personal use. This option allows you to identify the individual who has captured the lead and should be your default option. Send Individual invitations through Email, SMS, or both.

  • Universal Invitations – Send an authorization code for multiple users to use. This option will not let you identify the individuals capturing leads. This option is best for people who don't normally work with you, like vendors, temp workers, or third parties assisting you at your event. When selecting

Admin level users can also send new invitations or check Auth Codes from the Captello mobile app directly. Read here for more details.

Bulk Invitations

It is possible to send invitations to multiple users in an spreadsheet. Follow the steps below to invite multiple people at once:

  • Click on the Options drop-down button and click Bulk Invitations

  • Upload a spreadsheet that contains First Name, Last Name, Email and/or Mobile Number. A spreadsheet template is available to download if needed.

Reminders

Reminders help users activate their mobile app. If they have not logged in after a set amount of time, we will send them a reminder email with their Authentication code.

To enable reminders, click on the lightbulb icon next to User Access. Then, set the number of days prior to the Event Start Date. If the user has not activated by your set date, they will get a follow up email.

Bulk Invitations

You can send Invitations to many users at once using Bulk Invitations. To send a Bulk Invitation

  • Navigate to Events > Capture > Invitations

  • Use the drop-down menu in the top-right to download the Bulk Invite CSV Template

All four CSV fields must be included or you will get an error. For example, you must include the mobile phone field, even if that column is blank.

  • Click on the Eye symbol below their name to reveal the code. 

Edit a Device

Once a user has activated their device, you can edit their device settings using the action menu on the right in Events > Capture > Invitations > Devices.

Use the trashcan icons to delete the device from your system. Deleting a device will also prevent the user from accessing the mobile app. 

Use the pencil to edit the device's name on the device list. This is a helpful option to use if you have multiple users and will be sorting them into groups for various events.

Staff Directory

Staff Directory shows a list of your team members on Captello mobile app who have access to the specific events that you're attending. For live events, this means you can view and communicate with people from your company attending the event. To enable Staff Directory as an option, turn on the Show Staff toggle in the Properties tab of the Event Designer. 

Every user that has access to the event will be included in the Staff Directory. You can view your staff directory from under the settings gear on event designer page:

You can also change the status of individual staff member to available or unavailable.

In the Captello app, a Staff Directory would display like this:

Each of the buttons beside someone's name allows a different action.

Calendar. Clicking this button lets you schedule an appointment on the persons calendar.

Call. Clicking this button lets you voice call the person selected using your device.

Message. Clicking this button lets you send a text message the person selected.

Goals

Define goals for your event (targeted # of leads captured, etc.) and keep track of the progress toward each goal. Goals can be set at an individual level and/or team level.

To add your goals, click the gear icon on top and select Goals.

Choose from these available options. Create goals based on target number of leads or number of submissions.

For Individual Goals, select whether you want the same goal for all users, or custom goals per user.

In the Captello mobile app, a circular Goals icon will appear on the event when Goals are added.

Tapping this icon will open up your Goals statistics. You can view individual progress as well as team progress towards the set goals.

Localization

You can localize the mobile app for users in non-English speaking countries. Based on their device's language settings, users will see the app in their preferred language when they first authenticate. The app will automatically translate menu options, field labels, and multi-choice options. It will not translate Event Names or Addresses.

The mobile app currently supports:

  • Arabic

  • Chinese (Simplified)

  • Dutch

  • English

  • French

  • German

  • Italian

  • Japanese

  • Korean

  • Portuguese

  • Spanish

If you need localization in a language you do not see, contact your Lead Liaison representative for more information on adding a language.

To enable localization for app users, navigate to Setup > Events > Capture and scroll down to Localization. Then select either Auto Translate or Custom Translate.

Auto Translate

Auto Translate uses an advanced translation program to translate English text in real time. With this option, users can easily switch between supported languages. The translations are very accurate, but if your organization uses special words and phrases, the app may not have context to translate properly. In these cases, you should use a Custom Translate template.

Custom Translate

If you want to specify how the app should translate certain internal words or phrases, you can upload a Custom Translate template. To add custom localization support:

  • Navigate to Setup > Events > Capture.

  • Scroll down to Localization.

  • Select Manage Custom Translate.

  • A new page will open showing any current custom translations you may have. Select one of the current ones or click on New for a new translation.

  • Set the English word or phrase you want to customize, and the language your changing using the dropdown. Finally enter the translation that is desired.

  • Click Save.

Creating an Event

Events are the core of Event Lead Management. They include trade shows, conferences, meetups, and any other live event where you could capture lead data. To set up a new Event, navigate to Events > Capture and click New. Select from the following form types:

  • Exhibitor – Used to capture leads at live events or virtual trade shows. Includes all forms of lead capture such as kiosk, badge, and business card.
