Building skills in information marketing will boost your business

Trade Shows
Trade shows show promise as a "golden" marketing opportunity.
Many business owners are stepping outside of the traditional box
and investing in portable signage. Talking one-on-one with
potential buyers provides an immediate gratification that is
empowering. The trade show makes highlighting business services
or products easier. Plan Ahead Working trade shows requires some
planning. If possible, visit the facility prior to selecting
your booth. Walk through the facility looking for potential
problems that would inhibit your success, such as:
Food court: Although being located next to the food court could
be beneficial, it creates a distraction. It's difficult enough
to interest a potential buyer in 3-minutes; you don't need the
sweet smell of cotton candy interrupting.
Competition: Don't be suckered into renting a booth that is
right next to a competitor. Some people believe its quality that
counts and are eager to take the challenge of competition.
Accessibility: Ideally, your booth should be near the entrance
or exit of the building, or the restrooms, or the main isle.
Wherever there is an adequate flow of traffic.
The location of your booth and the signage you use will have a
direct result of your trade show success. Stay focus on the
appearance of your site. Use a banner to display your company
logo, web address, and phone number. It's important you capture
the attention of potential buyers with signage and color.
Keep it short and simple, K. I. S. S. Use a secondary color to
present information of importance. The two-tone color method
adds depth and retains the attention of the reader and that's a
big advantage.
Most booths are no more than a 9` by 5` area. So it is equally
important that you make valuable use of the area. Eliminate any
unnecessary clutter and keep things organized. It's important
that your potential buyer doesn't become distracted.
Offering a special is also a good way to bring more people to
your booth. Use a tripod and display board
to feature your
special offer. Write clear and in large lettering. Be prepared
to answer questions. Working a Business Trade Show Business
trade shows go hand in hand with network marketing. The primary
purpose of this type of trade show is to draw the interest of
other businesses. Your objective is to provide enough
information for the other participants to promote your services
or products by word of mouth or through passing literature.
It's common practice for business groups to exchange business
cards and brochures at a business trade show. Each booth gives a
2 minute presentation to visitors, a free gift (ink pen, magnet,
sticky notes, or eraser), and ask for the visitors literature.
Professionals shake hands and begin asking questions.
· How can I assist you? · What are the benefits of using your
services or products? · Who is your target market? · How can
potential buyers reach you? · Do you work outside of your area?
Business trade shows are not limited to business owners. Most
vendors will invite others that may profit from using the
services or products of the network group. Finding a good booth,
using the proper signage, and displaying a sample of your
services or products are all important elements of trade show
marketing.
Some believe network trade shows are more profitable. While
others, think a trade show that deals directly with the consumer
has more advantages. The secret to successfully marketing your
business at a trade show lies in the tools you use. If you have
a dynamic personality, make your next marketing strategy a trade
show.
