TRADE SHOW TIPS
TIRED EYES AND FEET • Trade shows are, by nature, huge, overwhelming and
exhausting. • Their heads turn from side to side, glancing for a split
second at each booth. What stops them? • A clear message! Signage front and center, the less
words the better. Don't make them figure out what you are selling.
• If they can't figure it out in the time it takes to glance at your booth, they'll keep walking.

TRADE SHOW TIPS
EDUCATE • Want to attract the most show goers? Get only qualified leads? • SIMPLE! Education! • Set up a speaker system. Have a 6 min educational presentation
every 20 minutess on the hour. • DO NOT SELL educate. • Tell them something they NEED to know before doing business
with you. • Give tickets for “the next show”. • The people who stay and listen to your talk can enter a draw and
you let them know that you WILL CALL THEM. • The “draw” form is a survey they must fill out. Only the SERIOUS
will do ALL that.
