Tradetec Skyline

Let’s not mince words. This situation creates a double-whammy for exhibitors. Not only will it cost more money to transport you, your team, and your exhibit to and from the show, but there will be fewer attendees at the show.

Some organizations, considering this, might make the decision to forgo the show. Higher costs, fewer attendees — it seems like an easy decision to make.

Easy, but wrong. Here’s the top three reasons this is NOT the time to skip the show:

1. Less Competition

There’s no doubt about it: some companies ARE going to skip the show. There will be fewer exhibitors, which means your exhibit will be more visible by default. Savvy exhibitors will have a plan to capitalize on this opportunity.

The less exhibitors attendees have to see, the more time they have to spend with each exhibitor who is there. This gives you a great window to begin or reinforce that relationship. Having a few extra minutes can make all the difference in the world.

With the costs of attending the show rising, weaker prospects — the group that comes to kick tires, take up your time, collect premium items and never buy anything — are less likely to attend. A greater percentage of show attendees will be focused on doing business.
