Why are trade shows important?•Meet hundreds of potential customers,
partners, and vendors•Exposure•Promote new products or services•Check out the competition•Build long-term relationships
Start With Small Talk
•Don’t expect attendees to approach you! •Break the ice with “small talk” –
How’s your day going?How’s the weather?
•Little questions like this will help get the trade show attendees to open up to you
•NEVER begin with your sales pitch!!
Always Ask Open-Ended Questions•Don’t give the attendees the opportunity
to say “no”. •Learn to really LISTEN to your potential
customers to find out what their needs are
•Listening will lead to long-term relationships
Follow up, Follow up, Follow up!• You are competing for their business against other
competitors that were at the same trade show. They will remember those businesses who contact them after the event.
• Send thank-you cards or give them a call. I would refrain from sending an email because it may come across as spam.
Hope these tips help!
