HowTo – Customise product groups & industries
How can I adjust the product groups and the industry classification in my online profile?
Your company profile is already assigned to the product groups you selected in the application as exhibitor. Products must be assigned to suitable product groups first. You can make changes to your product groups and industry assignments at any time in SelfService. The adjustment has no effect on your stand placement at the onsite event.
Assigning your profiles to relevant product groups and the corresponding industry is both necessary and useful. Product groups and industries are available as filters on the website for the visitor. Website visitors can use it to further specify their search for exhibitors and products according to their needs.
Note: The assignment to an industry is only available for certain exhibitions.
