Trade Show Advice

Question

Doing my first trade show with my company, their first time exhibiting as well. Does anyone have any experience in this area?

Congrats! I gave advice if you’re running a booth at a trade show. Making an effort to stay clear from your phone is definitely a good idea. Because checking emails or texting throughout will make you less approachable. Also don’t have a boring booth if you can help it. Having a way for people to walk up and engage with the product or learn about it in a fun way will keep your booth busy. Good luck!

Hey! Congratulations! Trade shows can be super exciting but also draining... be sure to follow the advice and EAT (but not at your booth) :) Are you looking for advice on networking? Booth design? Giveaways?

Take a lunch break and don’t eat at your booth!

People walking those hallways are as nervous, awkward as you feel so making eye contact and offering a kind smile can go a LONG way to making real connections and starting conversations. You don't really have to pitch - they'll ask what you're doing and you can share but try to keep it human and remember you're just having a conversation with another human :)
