- GE has a "highlight of the exhibitor name" that can be triggered with upgrades. For example, you can have any exhibitor that has a specific upgrade be highlighted in the system. In this field you will identify that type of exhibitor. (i.e., Premium Exhibitor, Sponsor, etc.)
- A blank value will exclude the highlight legend entirely.
- Adornments (icons) can be placed next the exhibitor name in the exhibitor list indicating different types of exhibitors for those that have a special indicator.
- Some examples might be Made in the USA, We Export, Sponsor, New Exhibitor, 10 Year Exhibitor, etc.
- The adornments are triggered by being associated with specific upgrades. You can charge for the adornments, or provide them as a service.

- HTML that is displayed on the Logo upload page to assist the exhibitors with additional information and/or prompting them to purchase the logo upgrade if using.
- GoExpo supports the concept that the show can decide what information is displayed to logged in attendees and public by default. The show can allow exhibitors to change the information that is displayed to the public and logged in attendees. The show can also set the information displayed and NOT allow the the exhibitors to change what public and logged in attendees see. See your CRM for assistance in setting this option.

- GE has the ability to add additional links in the dashboard that is displayed on the exhibitor dashboard as well as in dashboard links in the email.
- Popular examples: housing links, sales for an event, etc.
- The system can also be set to auto log the attendee into the housing account etc. if the linking company can provide us with the access code used for the attendee. (i.e., Housing is www.housing.com and the housing company uses the attendee external ID and email address (or some other identifier like unique email address) GE will be set to www.housing.com=jsp?show=##ext_id##&email=##email##&showId=429868)
- Your CRM can assist with setting this up for you.
