How to Attract Enough of the Right Buyers to YOUR TRA Marketplace Exhibit
TRA Marketplace is the second largest foodservice exposition in North America with more than 500 exhibiting companies. Competition for buyers’ time in the exhibit hall is fierce. The battle is won in the days and weeks leading up to show time. Today, no exhibitor of any size can afford to just show up and hope the right buyers find their exhibit. Effectively pre-marketing your exhibit is a “must do” to get your fair share of qualified booth traffic. In this practical, hands-on webinar, preeminent tradeshow expert, Jefferson Davis of Competitive Edge and the TRA exhibits team will walk you through a proven pre-show marketing planning process that will put your company “in the mind” and “on the agenda” of the right buyers.
