The Challenge

Why Most Teams Fail to Maximize Event ROI

Without preparation, DEFCON 2025 becomes an expensive networking trip with nothing to show.

Unusable Portals

30,000+ attendees. No way to filter by ICP. Finding ideal prospects means manually clicking through thousands of profiles.

Too Late

30-40% of attendees register in the last 2-3 weeks. Finish reaching out to one batch, hundreds more registered. Always behind.

No Prioritization

Without scoring and segmentation, all 30,000+ attendees look the same. Teams waste cycles on low-fit prospects instead of focusing on high-value targets.

Manual Multi-Channel

Reaching prospects across email, LinkedIn, phone, and in-app manually is impossible at scale. Most teams pick one channel and miss opportunities.

Best Practices

How to Actually Maximize DEFCON ROI

Winning teams follow two phases: preparation and execution.

3-4 weeks before

Pre-Event Preparation

Identify Target Prospects

Monitor attendee lists continuously as 30-40% register in the last 2-3 weeks.

Enrich with Contacts

Add verified emails, LinkedIn profiles, company data, and tech stack to raw attendee names.

ICP, Persona & ABM Matching

Score by role, title, job level, company size, revenue, location, industry. Match to target personas and ABM accounts. Focus on top 20%.

Launch Multi-Channel Outreach

Email, LinkedIn, phone, in-app. Goal: pre-book meetings with high-value prospects.

Event week

During the Event

Execute Pre-Booked Meetings

Calendars should be 60-70% full with high-fit prospects before arriving at Las Vegas.

Prioritized Conversations

Know ICP score and context for every interaction. Focus on high-value targets.

The Reality: Nearly Impossible Manually

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Spivot identify target prospects at DEFCON?

Connect to the event portal or upload attendee data. Spivot automatically identifies, scores, and enriches prospects as new attendees register, with daily updates to catch late registrations.

Can I use Spivot for events other than DEFCON?

Yes. Spivot is an AI agent that automates event workflows for any event where attendees are available in the event portal. The same workflow applies across all events.

How accurate is the ICP and persona matching?

Spivot's AI uses multi-factor analysis across role, title, job level, company size, revenue, location, and industry. Match attendees to target personas and ABM accounts automatically. Built-in intelligence recognizes equivalent roles like 'VP of Growth' and 'Chief Revenue Officer.'

What CRMs and sales tools does Spivot integrate with?

HubSpot, Salesforce, Outreach, Salesloft, Apollo, Google Sheets, and CSV export. You can also use our API for custom integrations.

Is my data secure and compliant?

Yes. Spivot uses AES-256-GCM encryption, OAuth 2.0 authentication, and multi-tenant architecture with complete data isolation. We're GDPR and CCPA compliant.

Why can't I just use the DEFCON attendee portal?

Event portals show 30,000+ attendees with infinite scroll or basic pagination. No filters for persona, company size, industry, or ICP criteria. Manually clicking through thousands of profiles to find 200 ideal prospects takes days. Plus, 30-40% of attendees register in the last 2-3 weeks, so teams need to repeat this process 2-3 times per week. Spivot extracts, enriches, scores, and filters automatically with daily updates.
