In any case, shelling out for a stall at a [[legaltech start-up conference]] just to harvesting email addresses and spam them is, it seems to us,  bad business. People have made the effort — minimal though it maybe, and with the aim of nicking your swag as it undoubtedly is — of showing up bodily at your stall and submitting to your QR scanners. The least you can do is make an effort when you go back to them.

:(i) '''Call the Yesses''': Call those who are: you know, in person, on the telephone: put in some effort: show a commitment signal. See if you can arrange a demo or something. Sending out form emails with “click here to meet with us” or “click on this button to see our demo” is lazy. It shows a lack of interest in the customer.
