Hello ...
it could be that you're not ready for tradeshows. Who's to know, until you do a little prep work?

We put together a fun list of reasons NOT to exhibit at tradeshows, ranging from using gimmicks to having a booth that doesn't accurately represent your brand. 


Now that we've showed you why NOT to use tradeshows as a marketing platform, here are a pair of posts from our archives that show you the good side of setting up a booth.


This one goes back aways, to the first year of the TradeshowGuy blog, but there are still a lot of good ideas in 23 Pre-show Marketing Promotions, Tactics and Ideas.
 
Yerba Prima, Expo West 2016 (March): We got to work with this great company from Southern Oregon to upgrade some of their graphics for the 20x20 booth (click the photo).
