The AAPEX and SEMA app for booth follow-ups · Nov 3–6
Make AAPEX and SEMA worth it this year.
You’re paying to put your team on the floor in Las Vegas. Minecart makes sure every booth conversation turns into contacts, opportunities, and follow-ups by the next morning.
We set up a limited number of teams by hand before the doors open on November 3.
The flight home
Most of what you hear is gone by Monday.
You promised pricing by Friday, got a new buyer’s cell number, and heard a competitor’s fill rates slipped. You were sure you’d remember. On Monday it’s a stack of business cards and a camera roll full of booth photos. CRMs track what happened. Minecart captures what was said.
How it works
The AAPEX app for what happens after the booth.
One conversation, from the booth to the weekend after. Scroll through it.
On the show floor
Say it the second you walk away.
Between booths, in the hallway, in the shuttle line. One button, and you just talk. Nothing to type.
While you walk to the next booth
Minecart finds the gold in what you said.
The person, the company, the opportunity, and the promise come out of the note on their own.
On a break or at night
Two minutes in Activity Review. Approve and done.
Fix a name the floor noise garbled, add the new account, approve. Everything you picked is saved.
Every morning
The day before is waiting when you wake up.
Who you met, what they need, what you promised, and your whole team's activity in one view.
After the show
Every contact and follow-up in one file.
Contacts, opportunities, and follow-ups, ready for your CRM or Monday's sales meeting.
The weekend after
Then you actually get the weekend.
Monday's follow-ups are already written. Go to the game. Sleep in. The show already paid off.

Questions
AAPEX and SEMA 2026, answered.
What's the best app to use at AAPEX 2026?
Use two. The official AAPEX app covers the floor map, the schedule, and exhibitor search. Minecart covers what happens after each booth conversation: your team says what they heard, and by morning it's contacts, opportunities, and follow-ups on the right company. Minecart works the same way at the SEMA Show.
Is Minecart the official AAPEX or SEMA app?
No. Use the official AAPEX and SEMA Show apps for the floor map, the schedule, and exhibitor search. Minecart covers what happens after each conversation: it captures what you heard and turns it into contacts, opportunities, and follow-ups.
When are AAPEX and SEMA 2026?
AAPEX 2026 runs November 3 to 5 at the Venetian Expo and AAPEX Forum in Las Vegas. The SEMA Show runs November 3 to 6 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
How long does setup take?
About ten minutes per person. Set a password from the invite email, download the app, take a first note, and review it on a computer.
Does it work if my team is at both shows?
Yes. Notes land on the same company no matter which hall you were in, and the morning report covers the whole team.
What do we get after the show?
A full export of every contact, opportunity, and follow-up your team captured, plus the morning reports from each show day.
Who qualifies for the show trial?
Aftermarket teams with two or more people walking AAPEX or SEMA to meet customers, vendors, or prospects. We set each team up by hand, so spots are limited. Email lauren@tromml.com to check.
