ORLAND PARK, IL – Organizers for the the Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) have announced that NetZone, a new matchmaking tool to connect exhibitors and registered buyers before, during and after the AAPEX show, is now available. The tool can be accessed at: http://www.aapexshow.com. AAPEX will be held Oct. 31-Nov. 2 at the Sands Expo Center in Las Vegas.
NetZone finds and matches exhibitors with buyers based on a search criteria set by exhibitors. Matches are sent automatically to exhibitors. The system schedules and confirms appointments with buyers, tells an exhibitor the names of buyers who viewed their company profile and lets exhibitors build lead lists based on matches and a profile tracker.
The matchmaking tool performs similar functions for AAPEX buyers, with an added feature of providing buyers with a custom floor plan to show exhibitors’ booth locations.
"Our test group of buyers and exhibitors said that NetZone created great matches and allowed them to set appointments at the show well in advance," said Bill Glasgow, Sr., AAPEX show manager. "They also said the product is very easy to use."
Since the test began, 248 buyers and 144 exhibitors have logged into NetZone and 178 appointments have been requested and/or made.
NetZone launched to all registered buyers and exhibitors on Sept. 25.
