Trade Show Tip #17 - Advice from Tradeshow ATTENDEES!
"When you jump up as I approach the exhibit, I feel like raw meat spied by an animal who has not eaten in a month. Please stay standing"
"I don't want to feel tied to the exhibit for a 20-minute presentation. Allow me to look around, pick up materials, read your literature and look at your newest products first."
"Don't launch into the sales pitch as soon as I walk into the exhibit. I may be a long-term advocate, familiar with your products and services. Do some initial assessment first."
"Rethink sign in sheets. I am uncomfortable about writing my name and address, as I may not want you showing up on my doorstep."
"Provide enough space so I can gather materials and look at products without having to ask you to move."
