Booth and conference leads that make it into Copper
Badge scans arrive days later in a spreadsheet, and business cards get typed up by whoever has time. With Textiful, visitors give you their details by text and they’re in your CRM before they reach the next booth.
Relationships start at the event
Each person lands in Copper with their company and answers, next to your Gmail conversations with them.
A keyword or a QR code
Say “text DEMO to 33777” from the front of the room, or put a QR code where people can scan it. Either one starts your capture flow.
Qualifying questions by text
A capture flow asks for company, role, or timeline one text at a time, and each answer becomes a field your reps can sort by.

Questions people ask
Yes. Each Zap watches one flow, so give each event its own flow and Zap. Tag each person with the event.
No. The short codes 33777 and 55444 work in the US only, and QR codes text those same numbers, so Textiful is for audiences in the US.
