Selling at an exhibition differs from your in-store, workshop or telephone selling techniques in several ways.

Seminars run from 10.30am to 3.30pm daily with a presentation every half an hour. 

The seminars are hugely successful and provide prospects, who having offered 20-25 mins of their time to sit and listen to your topic, are generally very interested in what you have to offer..  

The most popular seminars are educational, informative and entertaining (rather than purely product or service driven) however you do have plenty of time to promote your business and expertise in your field. 

There are many benefits of presenting at the seminars including extensive marketing in the Show Guide, web sites, display posters etc. Public perception is that presenting companies are industry experts and really know their stuff!

To maximise on this opportunity please express your interest and confirm early which will enable us to fully promote your presentation.
