Use Cases

How speakers, booths, bands, churches, and event teams turn a live audience into leads.

A digital connection card for church guests

A digital connection card for church works from the guest's own phone: during welcome time, they scan a QR code in the bulletin or text a keyword to 33777, give a name and email, and your guest follow-up team gets an email right away. It replaces the card in the seat-back pocket for the people who were never going to fill it out.

Campus event sign-ups for schools and student orgs

For a campus event sign-up, students and families scan a QR code at the club table or open house check-in, answer a question or two by text, and land in the right list. One account can give every club at the activities fair its own free QR code, so each one gets its own sign-ups.

Collect attendee emails at a workshop

To collect attendee emails at a workshop, tie the ask to something attendees already want: the workbook, the templates, or a recap of the exercises. Put a QR code on the first and last slide, ask for an email and a 1 to 5 rating by text, and the contact goes to your email tool with the feedback attached.

Collect fan emails at concerts and shows

The easiest way to collect fan emails at concerts is to say a keyword from the stage between songs and put a QR code on the merch table. Fans text FANS to 33777, give an email, and get the unreleased track or setlist you promised, and they land in your email list before the encore.

Conference lead capture for event organizers

Conference lead capture happens in a dozen rooms at once: the main-stage poll, the breakout session survey, the sponsor's giveaway. Textiful gives each moment its own QR code or keyword, asks a question or two by text, and sends the answers and contacts where your team works.

Grow your podcast email list with a spoken keyword

To grow a podcast email list, give listeners a call to action they can act on while their hands are full: a keyword like NOTES and a short code they can text. They text it, give an email, get the show notes or bonus you mentioned, and join your email list.

How speakers collect audience emails after a talk

The way to collect emails from your audience after speaking starts at the beginning of the talk: tell the room the slides are coming, so they can put their phones down. On the last slide, ask them to scan a QR code or text DEMO to 33777. Textiful asks for an email, sends the deck, and adds the contact to your email list.

Nonprofit event lead capture at galas and fundraisers

Nonprofit event lead capture works best at the moments a gala already has: the table card at dinner, the emcee at the podium, the live poll before the paddle raise. Guests scan a QR code or text a keyword, give a name and email, and land in your donor list through your email tool, HubSpot, or Zapier, including the guests who came as someone's plus-one.

Trade show lead capture for booth teams

Trade show lead capture with Textiful works from the visitor's own phone: they scan a QR code on your booth sign or text a keyword to 33777, answer two or three questions, and the lead goes to your CRM through Zapier or a webhook. Your staff gets an email for each lead, so a hot one doesn't wait until Monday.

Webinar audience engagement by text

Webinar audience engagement by text puts the phone next to the laptop to work: viewers scan a QR code on your slide or text a keyword, vote in a live poll, and give an email in the same conversation. You screen-share the results page, and every voter lands in your list.
