Show Sourcing
Read full descriptionHide full description
Show Sourcing is the product and vendor CRM built for trade shows and sourcing trips. It replaces the camera roll full of booth photos, the stack of business cards and the spreadsheet you fill in on the flight home. Everything you find is captured, priced and shared with your team before you leave the booth. AT THE BOOTH Capture a product in seconds and know what it really costs. • Snap products: a multi-shot camera, then price, MOQ and category with one-tap chips • Voice notes: speak the details and they become text • Your own fields: add the details your team tracks, and each shows only for the categories it fits, like battery size for speakers or capacity for bottles • Scan business cards: snap the card and the whole vendor fills in by itself, contact, email, phone and WeChat included • Landed cost: duty and freight added on the spot, for FOB, CIF, EXW or DDP • Price breaks: a price for every quantity, each with its own landed cost WITH YOUR TEAM Everyone on the trip works from the same list. • Live sync: new finds show up on every teammate's phone as they happen • Comments: discuss a product and @mention teammates • Status flags: mark what needs a sample, a quote or a second look • Push notifications: alerts with the product photo, so you see what changed at a glance • Team Map: see who is at the show and where BACK AT THE OFFICE Your whole trip, organized and ready to act on. • Search everything: by vendor, category, price, status, or the words printed on a product's box • Vendor profiles: every contact and card in one place, plus US shipping records for each supplier • Follow-up emails: written for you from the product, photos attached • Excel export: every product and vendor, with photos in the cells and live landed cost formulas • AI Connection: connect your own AI assistant and ask about your catalog EVERYWHERE YOU WORK • iPhone, iPad, Mac and web: the same catalog on every screen • Works offline: capture with no signal, sync when you're back • Automatic backup: nothing gets lost Built for importers, buyers and sourcing teams, from Canton Fair to the factory floor.
