Get the most from the next Trade Show and 2009

It’s a New Year! It’s time for trade shows gifts, new goals, corporate budgets, marketing ideas, and innovations. It’s time to start reorganizing, reworking, and planning to make 2009 the best year yet. So here is a plan to help you get the best out of tradeshows and reach your business goals.

First identify and understand your mission. What are your goals and how will you achieve those goals? Take an honest assessment of the current state of your business and decide what areas need improvement. Then create realistic goals and jot down the steps to your success. It would be a great idea to give your employees and business associates imprinted custom jotters to get them involved and motivated.

Second, study the demographics. Each trade show you attend or participate in may have a different audience. Decide who is important and whom you want to make a connection with. Then choose quality trade show promotional products to really get your audiences attention. You’ll want to choose an advertising item that is unique and memorable.

Third, review the agenda of the next industry show, corporate event, or community event. Decide where and when your company should attend and contribute. Pick advertising gifts that will truly make a statement at these events.

Lastly, plan to participate in these events. It’s the best way to make new business contacts!
