| There are few industries
that don’t sponsor some form of trade shows and exhibits.
Trade
shows- from Boat manufacturers to Beauty Suppliers- have become a huge business with an annual audience of more than 100 million
visitors and expenditures of $70 billion.
Trade exhibits are necessary
in many industries to maintain competitive parity, but they are also
a very expensive means of reaching customers.
To fully utilize the strengths of trade shows, manufacturers must
do more than just show up. Successful trade show participation demands
that participants engage in extensive pre-and post planning. Furthermore,
the trade show must be part of an overall marketing plan. Trade shows
differ from every other form of promotion.
In Fact, they are Hybrid
Between business-to business advertising and personal selling.
Trade
shows offer companies a number of advantages in addition to the sale
and demonstration of products. The primary failing of most unsuccessful trade exhibits is lack
of focus and objective.
A trade show mission has to mirror what
the audience is looking
For in educational terms.
This is a lot different than Nike’s
emotional “Just do it image/theme messages. Registrant spends
upwards of $3000 and nearly a week of their business lives just
to attend a trade show. Vague emotional appeals aren’t going
to cut with these people. Trade shows are an important complement to media advertising. The
more clients know about your products or services and the higher name
recognition your brand or company enjoys, the greater the chances
that trade show participants will stop by your booth.
