AFFINITY
TRADESHOW DIVISION
Are
you smashing all sales records at your Trade Shows and Conventions?
86
PERCENT OF ALL TRADE SHOW & CONVENTION ATTENDEES HAVE BUYING
INFLUENCE.
HOW
MANY OF THEM ARE STOPPING AT YOUR BOOTH?
Our
guess? Not as many as youd like.
You
see them do it at every trade show.
They
look your booth over from a distance, maybe reach quickly for some
literature while walking by
they may even grab your free sample
and
then theyre gone.
Along
with your potential sale.
Who
are they?
Your
customers. OR at least they should be.
Even
if youre doing well at your conventions and trade shows, RIGHT
NOW many of your potential customers are walking away
and
taking your profits with them.
Why?
Trade
Show Selling is Unique
The
average Trade Show & Convention visitor spends six hours looking
at exhibits and spends time in an average of 17 booths.
Your
company may already sell products and services through a showroom,
over the phone, in your customers office or in a retail store.
But at a trade show or convention, you are competing for
your customers attention. This is not a typical sales
situation. Whatever, the environment, your staff will need
a unique set of trade show and convention selling skills to
SMASH SALES RECORDS at a show.
Try to sell with your staffs usual techniques and you end
up sadly disappointed.
Use
a model and talent agency thats not aware of
these special trade show skills and you risk more
than just sagging sales. Your professional
reputation is on the line.
But
it doesnt have to be this way.
At
AFFINITY, we help you ACCOMPLISH YOUR MOST IMPORTANT
TRADE SHOW & CONVENTION GOALS:
- Achieve
new customer relationships.
- Close
new sales and gain higher profits.
- Produce
sales leads for your sales force to follow up.
- Sell
your products and services to other exhibitors
- Meet
with existing customers
- Establish
and expand industry positioning.
- Introduce
new products to the market
- Complete
market research
- Evaluate
the competition
- Gain
trade media exposure.
We
understand that you may have all these goals
.but are you working
smart or just working hard?
Use
Professional Models to Double and Triple Your Sales
Doing
a Trade Show or Convention without professional Models & Talent
is like winking at someone in the dark. You know what you
are doing, but nobody else does.
Each
time you exhibit, 91 percent of your visitors will be seeing
your companys personnel for the very first time. Have you
evaluated the talent youre currently using to represent your
companys image?
After
youve mapped out your trade show marketing strategy, after
youve paid for the space rental, the graphics design, the
promotion, the booth construction, the premium incentives, the storage,
the shipping charges, the air, ground meal and hotel costs for your
sales staff
does it make sense to skimp on your
professional image?
Many
trade show exhibitors know that you
have about four seconds to
attract a visitor to your booth. FOUR SECONDS!!!
Thats the amount of time it takes for your visitor to walk
past the length of your booth. You must
USE EVERYTHING IN YOUR POWER TO ATTRACT THAT CUSTOMER!!!
Professional
Trade Show Models and Talent can BOOST
YOUR CORPORATE IMAGE EXPONENTIALLY!!! Attractive, poised,
well-appointed models that are well versed in Trade Show booth hosting
give you the ADVANTAGE OVER YOUR COMPETITION.
Why? Social scientists call it THE "HALO
EFFECT."
A
halo effect occurs when one positive characteristic of a person
dominates the way that person is viewed by others. And the evidence
is now clear that physical attractiveness is often such a characteristic.
Research
has shown that we automatically assign to good-looking individuals
such favorable traits as talent, kindness, honesty, and intelligence
.good-looking
equals good
.
(E)xperiments
have demonstrated that attractive people are more persuasive in
changing the opinions of an audience
.Researchers (indicate)
that attractive individuals are
more likely to be viewed as
kind, interesting and competent.

Why
not TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE "HALO
EFFECT" to beat out the competition and MAKE
YOUR SALES SOAR!
Now
That Youve Got Their Attention, How Do You Make The Sale?

visual presentation may attract your potential customers to your

How
Much Talent Do You Need?
Having
trouble figuring out how many models or talent to use? Heres
an easy formula:
Number
of customers per hour
12 =
Number of staff for booth.
Youll
need 4 staff for every 50 customers per hour
If
you assume that each visitor spends five minutes at your exhibit,
that allows for 12 visitor interactions with each staff person per
hour. Based on your past experience or your future projections,
how many customers do you wish to qualify each hour?
An
average 10 x 10 booth can fit three individuals comfortably. However,
you can always place several of the talent in front of the booth
as well.
