Dermot’s Diaries: How to Make Exhibition Marketing a Success This Year

8th February 2017
Posted in: Exhibition, Marketing

“Procrastination is the avoidance of doing a task that needs to be accomplished. Is the practice of doing more pleasurable things in place of less pleasurable ones, or carrying out less urgent tasks instead of more urgent ones, thus putting off impending tasks to a later time.”

“Procrastination is the avoidance of doing a task that needs to be accomplished. Is the practice of doing more pleasurable things in place of less pleasurable ones, or carrying out less urgent tasks instead of more urgent ones, thus putting off impending tasks to a later time.”

Putting things on the long finger… we’re all guilty from time to time of it…but if you are thinking about taking a stand space at an exhibition this year, my advise is to plan early, and BOOK EARLY! Take full advantage of time to plan properly, and maximise all of the various marketing opportunities pre-show.

To make life a little easier, we have compiled a list of all of the trade shows and exhibitions in Dublin for 2017:

However for you to make an informed decision on which show is the ideal show for you to book a stand space, I would advise you have a look at the questions below, download this file and fill out the answers…

When you have these two documents completed, you are now (nearly) ready to make an informed decision.

Last piece of advice…call me anytime on  087-668 1061 and I would be happy to chat through your options to help you to make exhibition marketing a success for your business in 2017.

Cheers Dermot!
