Booth Script Generator

Write booth conversation scripts that help staff turn walk-up strangers into qualified leads — with different paths for different visitor types, not a one-size-fits-all pitch.

The problem with generic booth scripts is that they sound like they were written by someone who has never stood at a booth. A cold visitor who wandered over needs a completely different opening than a warm lead who responded to your invite. This skill accounts for that.

When this skill triggers:

• Use it before the show for staff prep, role-play, and daily briefing cards
• Use it during multi-day events when the booth team needs to reset or sharpen the message overnight
• Do not use it for outbound email copy; use booth-invitation-writer for that

Workflow

Step 1: Gather Context

Extract from the user's request. Ask only for what's critical and missing.

Required:

• Company name and what you sell (product + the core problem it solves)
• ICP / target buyer (title, industry, company size)
• Unique value proposition (what makes you different — even one sentence)
• Show name (helps set tone and context)

Helpful:

• Typical deal size and sales cycle (shapes how aggressive the CTA should be)
• Visitor types expected (confirm which paths to generate — see below)
• Any competitor names (for the competitor's customer path)
• Current staff experience level (first-time exhibitors need more structure than veterans)

If minimal info is provided, generate scripts for the two most common paths (Cold Walk-Up and Warm Lead) and offer to add others.

Step 2: Identify Visitor Paths

Generate separate scripts for each applicable visitor type. Don't merge them.

Path A — Cold Walk-Up

A stranger who stopped out of curiosity. They have no context. The goal is to establish relevance in 10 seconds and earn 2 minutes of their time.

Path B — Warm Lead

Someone who responded to your pre-show invite or is a known contact. They already have some context. Skip the "who we are" basics; focus on what's new and what the next step is.

Path C — Competitor's Customer

They're using a competitor. Curiosity or dissatisfaction brought them here. The goal is to surface their pain without badmouthing the competitor, and plant a seed for a post-show conversation.

Path D — Current Customer

An existing customer. The goal is not to sell — it's to strengthen the relationship, surface expansion opportunities, and ensure they feel like VIPs, not just booth traffic.

If the user only asks for specific paths, generate only those.

Step 3: Generate Scripts for Each Path

For each path, produce:

Opening Lines (3 variants)

Three different first sentences — different hooks, different energy. Staff can pick the one that feels most natural to them.

The opening should reference something observable (their badge, their body language, the show context) or lead with a problem, not a product name.

Bad: "Hi, I'm from AcmeCo. We make software for [X]."

Good: "Are you in [role] by any chance? We've been talking to a lot of [roles] here about [problem]."

30-Second Pitch

For when they say "sure, tell me more." Cover: the core problem, who you solve it for, the key outcome — nothing else. Hard limit: 75 words.

2-Minute Pitch

The full story: problem, why now, how you solve it, who uses it, proof point. For visitors who are clearly engaged. Should feel like a conversation, not a recitation.

Qualification Questions (5–7)

Questions designed to quickly determine if this person is worth a follow-up demo or meeting. The questions should help classify the visitor into Hot / Warm / Cold (matching badge-qualifier tiers).

Good qualification questions:

• Surface the problem without leading ("What does your current process for X look like?")
• Reveal timeline and urgency
• Surface buying authority ("Is this something you'd evaluate with your team?")
• Flag budget signals without asking directly about budget

Bad qualification questions:

• Yes/no questions that dead-end
• Anything that feels like a survey

Closing + CTA (by tier)

• Hot: Book a specific next step at the booth (demo, meeting, call with a technical lead)
• Warm: Agree on a low-commitment next step (send resources, schedule 15-min call post-show)
• Cold: Friendly close that plants a seed ("We'll be reaching out to everyone we met here — is [email] the best way to reach you?")

Capture Note (for badge-qualifier)

Add a one-line note template staff can fill in immediately after the conversation:

• Need:
• Urgency:
• Authority:
• Promised next step:

Step 4: Quick Reference Card

After all paths, produce a single Quick Reference Card the staff can print and keep at the booth:

## [Show Name] Booth Script Quick Reference

### Path A — Cold Walk-Up
Opening: [best 1-liner]
30-sec: [compressed version]
Top 3 qualification questions
CTA: [hot / warm / cold]
Post-conversation note to capture: [need / urgency / authority / promised next step]

### Path B — Warm Lead
[same structure]

[...other paths]

### Signs you're talking to a buyer:
- [signal 1]
- [signal 2]

### Hard pass (don't spend more than 2 minutes):
- [red flag 1]
- [red flag 2]

Quality Checks

Before delivering results:

• Every path must have distinct opening lines — copy-pasting the same opening with a minor tweak is not acceptable
• The 30-sec pitch must be 75 words or fewer — count them
• Qualification questions must be open-ended; closed yes/no questions only if they're deliberate disqualifiers
• The competitor path (C) must never include explicit badmouthing — reframe as "gaps our customers often mention switching for"
• The Quick Reference Card must fit on one printed page; cut anything that doesn't fit
• If the user mentions a regulated industry (pharma, medical devices, financial services), flag any claims that may require legal review before use
• Every path should leave the team with a usable capture note that feeds directly into badge-qualifier
