HyperActive Technologies Trade Show Product Demonstrations By John Bugay October 22, 2008
Trade Show Environment • Shows in 2008: • 14 shows in all • Three types of shows: • “Major” Corporate Shows (FS/TEC, DineAmerica, MURTEC) • “Franchisee” Shows (KFC, LJS, Arby’s, others) • “Reseller” events • Multiple Configurations • FS/TEC “HyperDrive Café,” 20x30 ft, all products • “Reduced format • The booth “out there” • Tabletop Display
Trade Show Environment • The Changing Environment: • Joe’s philosophy: “If you look like a big company, you’ll become a big company. (That’s the rationale behind FS/TEC) • Down Side: Major shipping/set-up costs with the “HyperDrive Café” booth • My presence needed “on site” for this setup. • Evolving Needs and Preferences: • Heavy pre-show marketing • Tabletop Display saves costs
