The problem

Networking at events is broken

If any of these sound familiar, your booth is leaving real pipeline on the table.

01

You forget names

You meet 30 people in a day. By the second coffee, you can't match faces to names.

02

Badges don't tell you enough

A name and a logo don't tell you what someone cares about, what they're building, or how you can help.

03

Small talk goes nowhere

"So what do you do?" is the fastest way to bore someone who hears it 100 times a day.

04

Follow-ups feel awkward

You scribble notes on napkins. Or you don't. Either way, the follow-up email never happens.

05

You miss the good ones

The best connections happen in hallways, not keynotes. But you're too busy to know who's who.

06

Post-event, it's chaos

A stack of business cards, a half-empty notebook, and a CRM you'll never update.

Before vs. after

Networking without Buddy vs. with Buddy

Same event, same foot traffic. Completely different outcome.

Without Networking Buddy

  • Forget names by lunch
  • Generic "nice to meet you" follow-ups
  • Hours of post-event CRM entry
  • Guessing who to prioritise
  • Scattered business cards & napkin notes

With Networking Buddy

  • Instant recall with AI profiles
  • Personalised messages in seconds
  • Auto-synced contacts & notes
  • Fit scores rank your best leads
  • One dashboard for every connection

I used to dread post-event follow-ups. Now I just hit "copy" on the AI message and send it. Closed two deals from Dreamforce alone.

Walking into a booth knowing someone's role, company size, and recent funding? That's an unfair advantage.
