Your 2017 marketing budget no doubt includes at least a few trade shows or events. Shows are an indispensable marketing initiative because they offer direct access to thousands of prospective clients.
But the opportunity to capitalize on this concentrated source of leads is fleeting and the window for attracting and engaging attendees during the show itself is barely open a crack.
That means you need to offer a compelling reason an over-scheduled visitor should devote some of his limited, precious time to exploring your business.
Dominate Shows and Events in 2017
Think about your current booth experience. Do visitors queue up to check out your space? Clamor for the chance to test drive your latest products? Eagerly engage with your sales reps?
If the answer is no, you need to re-think your booth presence. And, even if you’ve had success in the past there’s always room to improve, right?
Make Your Booth a Must-See
To make the upcoming year’s shows more memorable, more dynamic and more effective than ever — you know, really rock — the trick is to do something different. Showcase something truly unique.
Draw people to your booth by offering something irresistible that they simply can’t find elsewhere.
And what is that, you ask?
Touch.
As in, immersive, engaging, visually arresting multi-touch experiences — self-guided, interactive journeys through your products and your brand.
Dynamic and intriguing experiences that make people stop in their tracks.
Do I have your attention? Great. Let me show you what I’m talking about.
