Create a View with Account and Contact information

Create a View with Account and Contact information

We tag all visitors to our exhibit at conferences with the "contact" record.  If we see Joe Smith, we have a data field (multi pick list) where we track we saw Joe Smith at a certain show.   This is great because we see clients at multiple shows, we can run the report next year before the show and know what existing clients we are going to see there.

The filter created is off contact fields, but it would be great if we could add account info fields in the same view.

This also would be ideal if we could run analytics on all the contacts, but also see account info (like do they have an existing service agreement, what products does their company own, etc.).

I can think of hundreds of reasons a  user would want to view account and contact info side by side and it would be best to do this in Views...but I don't see that's possible.

Any ideas on how I could turn this information into actionable intelligence reporting from our shows?  I'd love to see how many clients using our GIS tools (Tracked in account info) were at the Water show...or how many clients using our "GPS tools" (tracked in account info) were at the WasteWater show, etc.
