Long wait times and poor user experience can cause frustration and unwanted callouts on social media and discourage attendees from returning to future events. Here are some best practices to ensure a smooth and efficient onsite registration process so your attendees can quickly get their badges and take advantage of everything your event has to offer.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;178887&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pre-Registration: <\/span>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;434736&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Encourage attendees to pre-register for the event. Offer incentives such as early bird discounts or freebies like swag, drink tickets, and parking reimbursement. Also, online registration should be quick and easy, especially for returning customers. Auto-fill contact information when possible to significantly speed up the process. If it takes longer than 5 minutes to register, it\u2019s probably too long.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;210165&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remote Self-Serve Kiosks:<\/span>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;794143&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think airport check-in. Implement self-serve badge pickup kiosks around the convention center for attendees to quickly print their badge <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">before<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> they arrive. Focus on areas where you expect a large inflow of people, such as airports, hotels, and bus drop-off locations. Strategically placed kiosks can reduce foot traffic in the central registration area by up to 50%, which can be the most significant factor for reducing wait times and boosting customer satisfaction. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;114932&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remote Self-Serve Carts:<\/span>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;176447&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This option is similar to the self-serve kiosk above but is mobile. They can be moved around easily to busy areas. For maximum speed and efficiency, carts should have onboard battery power, wifi, and reliable scanning and printing capabilities to keep them running smoothly.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;133646&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Registration QR Codes:<\/span>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;886279&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Include QR codes on strategically placed signage around the convention center for people to register on their smartphones. Then, the registration confirmation will direct them to nearby self-serve badge printing stations. This works particularly well when the QR code signage is close to the badge printing stations. Be sure your registration website is mobile-optimized and has a simple registration flow.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;107459&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Self-Serve Registration Stations:<\/span>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;210030&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For attendees that did not register in advance, offer self-registration stations in your central registration areas. This technology allows attendees to register, pay, and print their badge in just a few minutes. Furthermore, it reduces the number of registration counters and temporary personnel needed.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;201234&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mobile Badge Printing App:<\/span>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;568930&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Equip your team members with a handheld badge printing app to proactively alleviate long registration lines \u201con-the-fly.\u201d Approach pre-registered attendees waiting in line, enter their name or registration number and direct them to a designated printer location to collect their badge. It does wonders for quickly clearing out bottleneck areas. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;171631&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queue Management:<\/span>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;198836&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use queue management techniques such as floor markers, rope and stanchion, and signboards to guide attendees in an organized fashion. While simple management techniques may seem obvious, poorly organized registration areas can increase wait times by up to 35%. Consult your registration provider when designing your registration areas.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;147026&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Real-Time Updates:<\/span>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;528374&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Provide real-time updates on wait times and any changes to the registration process to keep attendees informed and reduce frustration. Display updated information on the show app and registration dashboard, or make it accessible via a chatbot. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;971024&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feedback Mechanism:<\/span>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;896792&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Collect feedback from attendees and exhibitors on the advance and onsite registration process to identify areas for improvement for future events. Offer a simple feedback form directly on the registration website or include a link to a survey in your registration confirmation email. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;154881&#8243;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In conclusion, by implementing these best practices, you can ensure a smooth and efficient onsite registration process, reducing wait times and improving the overall experience for attendees. This will help you build a loyal attendee base, improve the overall success of your event, and increase customer retention.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>Stay up to date by connecting with us on social media:<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;9770&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;25&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; media_link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FCompusystemsIncorporated|target:_blank&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;176004&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;9769&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;20&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; media_link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FCompuSystemsInc||target:%20_blank|&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;9766&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;20&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; media_link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fcompany%2Fcompusystems%2F||target:%20_blank|&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text text_lead=&#8221;yes&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;336172&#8243;]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Check out our related blog posts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;12817&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;142552&#8243;][vc_column_text text_lead=&#8221;yes&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;214189&#8243;]<a href=\"https:\/\/www.compusystems.com\/events\/what-to-do-at-this-years-event-to-maximize-registration-for-next-year\/\"><strong>What to do at This Year&#8217;s Event to Maximize Registration for Next Year<\/strong><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;12818&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;132331&#8243;][vc_column_text text_lead=&#8221;yes&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;204423&#8243;]<a href=\"https:\/\/www.compusystems.com\/events\/tips-for-organizers-when-providing-registration-vendors-with-event-set-up-specifications\/\"><strong>Tips for Organizers When Providing Registration Vendors with Event Set Up Specifications<\/strong><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;12819&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;150693&#8243;][vc_column_text text_lead=&#8221;yes&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;418365&#8243;]<a href=\"https:\/\/www.compusystems.com\/events\/the-future-of-events-unleashing-the-potential-of-qr-codes\/\"><strong>The Future of Events: Unleashing the Potential of QR Codes<\/strong><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;12811&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;873818&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;978558&#8243;]By Kahle Williams Onsite registration is often the first time attendees experience your brand.
