The Challenge
Without preparation, Data Center World becomes an expensive networking trip with nothing to show.
400+ attendees. No way to filter by ICP. Finding ideal prospects means manually clicking through thousands of profiles.
30-40% of attendees register in the last 2-3 weeks. Finish reaching out to one batch, hundreds more registered. Always behind.
Without scoring and segmentation, all 400+ attendees look the same. Teams waste cycles on low-fit prospects instead of focusing on high-value targets.
Reaching prospects across email, LinkedIn, phone, and in-app manually is impossible at scale. Most teams pick one channel and miss opportunities.
Best Practices
Winning teams follow two phases: preparation and execution.
Monitor attendee lists continuously as 30-40% register in the last 2-3 weeks.
Add verified emails, LinkedIn profiles, company data, and tech stack to raw attendee names.
Score by role, title, job level, company size, revenue, location, industry. Match to target personas and ABM accounts. Focus on top 20%.
Email, LinkedIn, phone, in-app. Goal: pre-book meetings with high-value prospects.
Calendars should be 60-70% full with high-fit prospects before arriving at Washington.
Know ICP score and context for every interaction. Focus on high-value targets.
These practices work. But 30-40% of attendees register in the last 2-3 weeks. Manual execution takes 5-7 days per batch. Teams would need to repeat identification, enrichment, scoring, and outreach continuously across email, LinkedIn, phone, and in-app. Most don't have the bandwidth.
The question isn't what to do. It's how to execute continuously at scale.
