The buzz word post-millennium is networking and for some it forms a key part of their marketing strategy. However, networking regularly takes time something that is often in short supply in business. Attending business shows allows you to network in one go with hundreds of other exhibitors, delegates, speakers and generally people like yourself that are looking to network and create connections, the difference is you can do it quickly in a relatively short space of time.
Here are a few reasons why booking your ticket to an FSE show can help your business.
- Our tradeshow events are FREE to attend as a delegate
- The chance to meet and network with exhibitors who in turn could become suppliers or even customers.
- Exhibitors are there to promote themselves and their details are freely available via the interactive floor plan that every FSE event has on its event site.
Most of our shows attract in excess of 600 delegates and exhibitors – all of who are accessible in the app prior, during and after the show. All of our trade-shows feature a line-up of seminars that are relevant to us all in business.
Popular seminar topics include,
- Marketing
- Social media
- Sales
- Leadership
- Communication skills
- Business issues
These seminars feature industry experts in their field sharing advice and best practice on their specialist subjects.
The seminars are completely FREE to access as a delegate and can be a game changer if applied correctly. Booking the presenters individually to come to your business and share their knowledge would cost you hundreds if not thousands of pounds, attending a couple of seminars at a show costing you nothing but your time is worth the investment of turning up in the first place.
Meeting exhibitors at a show in a none sales type environment is a great way to build a supplier network. Spending 10 to 15 minutes with an exhibitor on their stand can help you determine if they are the right fit for you as a supplier.
And if you still need a reason to attend, how about just to catch up with old contacts, friends or business acquaintances that you haven’t seen for a long time. Most events we stage have free parking, easy transport links and on-site cash catering so you can make a day of it.
It doesn’t matter what part of the business community or industry sector, we welcome everyone from business owners and managers to team members from all categories of business.
Attending a trade show is a great chance to meet great people and boost your profile whatever your background.
