UGC for B2B: How DataScan Turned NRF into a Content Powerhouse

Trade shows are where innovation meets opportunity, and Datascan seized the moment at NRF with the power of user-generated content (UGC) and strategic planning. With MarketScale Studio as a key partner, Datascan transformed its presence into a content powerhouse, producing over 25 high-quality videos from the trade show floor. How? Preparation and execution.

Why Preparation is the Key to UGC Success

Before ever stepping foot onto the NRF floor, Datascan had a well-structured plan in place. The team outlined a detailed thought leadership interview schedule, ensuring that every critical industry voice was captured. When creating content at scale in a fast-paced environment, having a roadmap is essential. But preparation isn’t just about scheduling—it's also about equipping yourself with the right tools.

The Right Tools for High-Quality UGC

Capturing compelling trade show content requires the right setup. DataScan ensured seamless execution by using:

• A gimbal for smooth, professional-looking shots
  
• A wireless lavalier microphone for crisp audio in a busy trade show environment
  
• MarketScale Studio’s saved order feature, providing consistency across all video assets

By leveraging these tools, Datascan maintained a polished, cohesive brand presence across every piece of content, maximizing impact with minimal post-production work.

Dedicated On-Site Production: Capturing Authentic Moments

In the rush of a major trade show, it’s easy to miss key moments. To avoid this, Datascan sent a dedicated producer to NRF, ensuring every important interaction and thought leadership opportunity was captured. The result? A wealth of high-quality, engaging content that extended the impact of NRF far beyond the event itself.

From Trade Show to Thought Leadership

The power of UGC isn’t just in the moment—it’s in how it extends a brand’s voice long after the event ends. By leveraging MarketScale Studio, Datascan amplified its thought leadership, engaged its audience, and reinforced its presence as an industry leader.
