Exhibiting at our targeted events is a valuable opportunity to increase your company’s exposure and grow your business. At NCSI, we know that your success as an exhibitor is vital to our business. In order to ensure that your experience is positive, please take a moment to review these helpful tips.

In-agency Technology Expositions

• Always submit your security information on time in order to gain access to secure show locations.
• Be on time! The VIP Tour typically begins at 9:30 am so be ready and set up by 9:00 am so you are able to put your best foot forward.
• Let us know who your target audience is at a show location. We will be sure to invite them to the Expo!
• Submit an alternate representative’s security information, in the case of an emergency; your company will still have representation at the event.
• Set appointments to coincide with the event. Make your travel time productive by meeting with current and potential clients in the area.
• Travel with the Exhibitor Information Packet as it contains important information such as driving directions and special security instructions.
• Know how to describe your company in 30 seconds or less in order to inform potential customers.
• Do not leave your exhibit space unattended. You never know when your next customer will be coming!
• Demonstrate your product rather than having paper brochures. Take advantage of this face to face opportunity!
• Don’t pack up early! It reflects poorly on your company when your exhibit space is empty.

Conferences & Conventions

• Order your booth furniture, carpeting and accessories early to receive advance order discount rates.
• If you are shipping supplies to the show site, follow the directions given by NCSI exactly.
• To ensure your company listing is printed in the program guide, you must submit your listing by the deadline indicated.
• Sponsorships offer creative avenues for additional marketing opportunities. Call us today to receive information about sponsorship opportunities.
• Do not leave your exhibit space unattended. You never know when your next customer will be coming!
• Dress appropriately, watch your language, and respect your neighbor’s space.
• Attendees like exhibitors who smile, are outgoing, knowledgeable, articulate and personable.
• Demonstrations draw more attention than papers and brochures. Get noticed!
• Don’t pack up early! It reflects poorly on your company when your exhibit space is empty.
• Use lead retrieval devices to help you organize your contacts, increase your customer database, and follow up in a timely manner.

At one event you could accomplish what may otherwise take months. Take advantage of this face to face opportunity to market your company.
