Trade fairs is between hotels, plane tickets, shipping and the holder fees, one of the most expensive ways træarbejdere may market itself.While there are differing views on the effectiveness of this avenue, are many træarbejdere exhibit in order to meet future clients. so if you want to put in time, effort and money to exhibit at a trade show, there are a couple of detail that is important not to overlook.

Keep things neat. With so many people coming in and out of the exhibition space, it is easy to get frazzled and let the water bottles, boxes, and business card stack, where they don't belong. keep your area tidy creates a more inviting spaces, makes you look more professional and prevents interference from your goal of showcasing your work.

Collects contact information. Shows are a great place to build a customer email list, which you can later use to send newsletters, updates and special offers.You can have a sheet for people to fill in the request for additional information, or you can even hold a raffle where people fill out their details for a chance to win something you away.

Give something away.Most people love free stuff. think about what you want, when attending these events. If people are giving away lots of WIN, consider a branded reusable bag for them to carry out things in. If it is a family oriented event will stickers or yo-yos would be a hit with the children, and open the door for an interview with the parents. These days you can feel pretty much anything, so seeing something fun or useful to fit your budget.

Get your name out.Talk about branded items, there should be no shortage of space exhibition branding. make it easy for people to remember your name with multiple characters, and accompany them with leaflets and maps.

Has something interactive.Woodworker Geoffrey Warner lent us his Owl stool to take to the Maker Faire, a couple of weeks ago.We placed the stool at the entrance to our booth and literally hundreds of people plopped on it, and lo, moved around, and spoke about how incredibly comfortable it was. it was a great conversation piece, it got people involved in the booth, and made their experience easier to remember.

We would love to hear some of your experiences as a holder or a participant on the show. share your success (or not so successful) stories below!
