How to Make Your Booth Staff a Competitive Advantage

Tuesday, January 16, 2025  | 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm ET

 

Your exhibit is about getting quality face-to-face contact with pet retail buyers. Only your booth staff can manage this critical part of your exhibiting program.  Buyers use trade shows not only to evaluate products and services, but equally important, to evaluate the people behind the brands. 
            
If your staff is fully prepared and understands the expectations and needs of attendees and the unique dynamics of communicating in the challenging exhibiting environment, they will make a huge difference in the quality of your interactions, quality of your leads, your brand impression and ultimately your return on investment.  Make sure your booth staff are fully prepared to put your best foot forward by registering for this exhibit staff training workshop developed by tradeshow productivity expert Jefferson Davis of Competitive Edge.
