Running a successful exhibition stand Theresa Summerfield 25 th September 2008

The exhibition stand Visitors Etiquette Sales techniques Do’s and don’ts Topics

Pre-exhibition checklist: Goals Target visitors Responsibilities Targets Activities Dress code Stand – products, displays, literature, demos Stand location Stand – timings, health and safety Logistics – transportation, accommodation, food, set-up, breakdown Stand

Basic calculation to work out how many leads (contacts) you can get from an event: Number of staff Each staff member qualifies one contact every 10 minutes (6 per hour) Number of hours For example: a 12 metre stand requires 3 members of staff 6 contacts per hour 3 day event, from 10:00 – 17:00, with an hour lunch break (6 hrs) 3 x 6 x 3 x 6 = 324

Why exhibit? Permissive marketing Face-2-face contact Experiential marketing

Give people a reason to find you Offer a reward / freebie Send contacts postcard with a map showing stand location and number existing contacts with new developments

The average visitor walks past a stand in 3-4 seconds – we want to attract their attention, make them want to stop Stand needs to look professional, friendly and inviting 2, 3 people on the stand at a time; maybe 4 when busy (rota) No second chance, only 3 seconds to make an impact! First Impressions count!
