Buyers meet many suppliers at a fair and keep 2 or 3. The first supplier to follow up with details from the booth is the one they remember. One InnoEX buyer held about 12 meetings and left with 2 or 3 likely partners.

How it works

4 steps in 14 days. You only do the first.

  1. Step 1 · Last day of the fair

    You hand over the cards

    Give us your business cards and scan list. Photos of the cards on WhatsApp are fine.

  2. Step 2 · Within 24 hours

    A clean, scored list

    Every card goes into one spreadsheet. We research each buyer: company, size, country and what they import. Each one is scored A, B or C.

  3. Step 3 · Within 48 hours

    First email to every buyer

    A personal email to each buyer, in your name, about what they asked at your booth. It lands at 9am their time, after you approve it. Then 2 more emails, plus calls or WhatsApp to A and B buyers.

  4. Step 4 · Day 14

    Meetings booked and a report

    Meetings go straight into your calendar. The report shows who replied, who booked, and who to keep warm.

It lands at 9am where your buyer is

We send at their start of day, not yours, so your email is at the top of the inbox. Sample times for a week in November.

The emails go out in your name. You decide what your buyers see.

You approve every email

Nothing goes to a buyer until you approve the first email. The 48-hour clock pauses while you review it.

Replies come to your inbox

Your buyers reply to you. You see every conversation as it happens.

Meetings go in your calendar

We book meetings into the calendar you already use, with notes on each buyer.

Your data stays yours

Your buyer list belongs to you. We use it only to follow up for you. We never share or sell it.

One fixed price per fair

An 18 sqm deluxe booth at the Gifts & Premium Fair is HK$106,200. A 9 sqm standard booth at the ICT Expo is HK$33,240. Following up every card from it is one fixed price.

Questions

We didn't use Scan2Match. Can you still help?

Yes. Business cards are enough. Hand us the stack on the last day, or send photos of the cards on WhatsApp. We type them up within 24 hours.

Will buyers know it's not me?

The emails go out in your name. They cover your products and what the buyer asked at your booth. You approve the first email before anything is sent.

Every reply comes to your inbox, so your buyers deal with you.

What happens to our buyer data?

Your buyer list stays yours. We handle it under Hong Kong's Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (PDPO). We use it only to follow up for you, and we never share or sell it.

When the work is done, we delete our copy if you ask.

Which fairs do you cover?

HKTDC fairs in Hong Kong where your buyers speak English. For example the Electronics Fairs, Lighting Fairs, Gifts & Premium Fair, Optical Fair and ICT Expo.

We are an independent company. We are not part of HKTDC.

How soon do I need to book?

Book before the last day of the fair, so we are ready when you hand over the cards. You can also book after the fair. The 48 hours start when we receive your cards and scan list.
