Whether you are new to selling at trade shows or a seasoned exhibitor, this method stresses the importance of booth design and staffing if you want to maximize the return on your trade show investment - before, during and after the show!

Method 7: Image Marketing - Like any other professional, your image is crucial to your success. A strong reputation . . . a proven track record . . . a history of community support . . . these qualities and many more shape the way you are viewed by others. This method involves strategies for enhancing your presence in the public eye - gaining exposure, publicity, free advertising (and perhaps a little fame and fortune in the process).

But the rewards could be massive for those who aren't easily overwhelmed.
