This guide will take you through the process of adding new exhibiting companies in to LiveControl.
Creating a new Exhibitor
First, access the Exhibitor List.
From the main dashboard, click 'registrations' and then 'Exhibitor'
This list will display all the Exhibiting Companies that currenty exist in your campaign. You can use the keyword search to make sure the one you are adding doesn't already exist.
Click 'Create' in the top right corner:
The minimum required fields on this form is just the Name of the exhibitor. However, we recommend adding the following:
Name - The name of the exhibitor as you want it referred in to LiveControl
Exhibiting Name - Used to override the Name if the company is exhibiting under a different name, and wants it different in their Exhibitor Hub.
Name = LiveBuzz Ltd
Exhibiting Name = LiveBuzz

Once all this information is added. Click on Save Exhibitor in the top right corner:
You may now wish to send the Exhibitor Welcome Email or access the Exhibitor Signd URL Login Link.
