Marketplace 2009 and Mingle360

We are pleased to give you an exciting new benefit.  ABA has engaged with Mingle360 to provide their unique lead retrieval/business networking technology in Charlotte - the MingleStick. This device will be given to every operator and sponsor/exhibitor and is about the size of a USB drive.  Simply aim your MingleStick at another MingleStick and it exchanges information electronically. After Marketplace, you can access your online account and retrieve information on every operator you met at Marketplace.

Marketplace is fast paced. Every day you meet lots of people, shake hands, and say goodbye. Sometimes you trade business cards, but with so many people working your booth they can get misplaced or even lost. We want you to stay connected, so we are providing you with the tools to do that better.

MingleStick is more than the basic lead retrieval of yesteryear.  When you return your MingleStick at the end of Marketplace, you will be sent an email with your entire weeks worth of connections.  No more typing in contacts, scanning business cards or sharing leads the old fashioned way because your mingle history is automatically uploaded and ready for review! MingleManager allows you to share and manage contact information, and add and delete as you see fit.

There are a limited amount of MingleSticks which can be rented by individual delegates. All buyers will automatically receive a Mingle Stick with their registration and do not need to rent one.  This will allow you to carry the MingleStick throughout Marketplace, including the Business Floor and all of the networking events.  The individual MingleSticks will contain your unique information pre-programmed.   You can rent one for only $20.  Supplies are limited, so rent yours at Marketplace registration as soon as you arrive at Marketplace.

We would like to thank our sponsors who will make Marketplace 2009 such a success:
