Can you give some tips for those exhibiting at ASD Market Week for the first time?

My biggest suggestion would be to really plan. Plan your pre-show marketing, plan your booth layout (it should be representative of your products and brand (not just an afterthought), plan and train your staff (it is very important). Attached is a REALLY great white paper of Tips for New Exhibitors. Find below some useful information about 10 mistakes exhibitors make:

  1. Underselling your company with bad graphics: a less-than-professional appearance does not give your prospect confidence in you or your products and services.
  2. Putting way too much text on your display: you’ve got literally seconds to get someone’s attention as they stroll around the show floor. No one will stop to read a lot of text.
  3. Not promoting your presence at trade shows: let your clients and prospects know about your trade show appearances by using an e-newsletter and social media. Plan the launch of a new product/service around a show to create a buzz. Send invites...
  4. Not training your booth staff and discussing proper expectations: Don’t make the assumption that because you have professional salespeople they will understand the nuances of how to work in a trade show environment. Staff your booth with people who are as good or better than you!
  5. Not listening to your prospects needs: Don’t be so excited to get your message across and sell your product that you miss out on important info about your clients’ needs.
  6. Depending on a fishbowl to bring in qualified leads: Be an expert provider of solutions and you don’t necessarily need a generic giveaway contest to drive traffic to your booth.
  7. Hauling too much literature to your booth: Instead, write “Show Sample” on a copy of your literature to display at the show, and then get your prospect’s contact info to email or mail the info to them after the show.
  8. Not planning for trade show success: Discuss timelines with your trade show marketing consultant, get feedback from industry peers, do your homework.
  9. Not informing your exhibit service partner: Make sure that the service/I&D crews handling the logistics of your booth understand what’s going on with your booth.
  10. Not following up on leads: Though seems like a no-brainer, you need to make sure that your leads are called on in a timely fashion.
