Can you answer dietcoke’s question about Displays?:

I know that it is probably very different depending on what event you go to, but i just wanted to get an idea of how much it costs. My display will require about 20 to 30 square feet

    Displays Feedback: Wow! That must be a pretty great display! It will definitely vary by event and by your locale. I would say for a for-profit business in a major trade show you will be looking at clost to $1,000. Of course– depending on your product, there are lots of other options as well that cost much less or are even free. Email me with more details of your product/goal and I can send you some ideas of where to look for additional marketing opportunities.

    Also— be sure to ALWAYS have a drawing any time you do an exhibit. That is the best way to gather people’s information so that you can follow-up with them.

    Good luck!

    Displays Feedback: This depends upon the trade show.

    We recently paid 20,000 USD for a 3×6 pitch at one show.
