“There’s more than one way to get exhibitors in your shows… And we’ve got some great ideas!”
LIST YOUR EVENT…
The exposure your event receives has a direct correlation to both the number of exhibitors who apply to your show AND to the quality of work those exhibitors display. It’s our goal to provide the best possible exposure for you! The listing, both online and in the print copy of our guide is the fundamental stepping stone of promotion for your show. Our event guide is set up like a directory… and that’s the way it’s used. Exhibitors use several cross references to hone in on just exactly what they are looking for and it’s found we provide all the pertinent information about the show.
