HowTo – Get your online profile ready again

 

How do I set up my online profile now that I participate in the exhibition again?

Your online profile is available again for your current exhibition participation – including all the content you last maintained.
Did you already enrich your profile for the previous exhibition with texts, images, products or other details? Great – you’ll benefit twice now: You can simply reuse that content, adapt it as needed and optimise it for your new exhibition appearance.

Please note: Products that you presented online at the last exhibition will not be published automatically again. To make them visible in your online profile, you need to actively select and assign them in the SelfService tool.

  • Which products would you like to showcase this time?
  • Do you want to add any new highlights, updates or documents?
