Secrets of Success

We have some great promotional ideas to improve your presence before and at the Show. Stop what you're doing; read the following, build them into your marketing plan and act on the following - Now!!

Your Exhibitor Manual

A hard copy of the exhibitor manual will be sent out to all confirmed exhibitors at the beginning of November followed shortly by the online version. The online manual will be password protected to ensure security when completing all the necessary forms. Details of how the online manual will operate along with your registration details to access the site will be sent to you with your copy of the printed manual.

To ensure we promote you and your products accurately in all our advance publicity it is essential that you complete the "Exhibiting Name" Form accurately and immediately. The name you supply us with on this form is then used by us on all our promotional literature e.g. web site, newsletters, show guide and on site the A-Z listing as well as the fascia name on the shell scheme stands. Therefore you can see it is vital that this information is correct and accurate from day one!
