Your reg desk is holding your event back.
Your attendees are in line. Your staff is searching through badge stacks. And the first thing a guest hears is: “Hi, what’s your name?”
It doesn’t have to be this way.
EventMobi’s BadgeOn™ combines wireless, battery-powered badge label printing with the EventMobi Onsite App — so you can check in attendees from the hotel lobby, at the buffet, at six kiosks at once, or anywhere in between. No wires. No fixed desk. No piles.
In this live Events Masterclass, host Brandt Krueger walks you through what’s now possible when check-in is no longer tied to the lobby — with real stories from GoWest Live and One World Rental, and a live demo of BadgeOn™ in action.
What You’ll Learn:
✅ Why pre-printed badges cost more than you think, and what you’re giving up
✅ How wireless on-demand printing changes the arrival experience for attendees and staff
✅ How QR codes on badges unlock session tracking, lead retrieval, and attendee networking
✅ Real stories from planners who’ve already made the switch
✅ A live demo of the BadgeOn™ setup, from unboxing to first print
