We all know that in the world of trade shows, quality of attendees is king. Five minutes spent talking to one qualified attendee could result in thousands of dollars of new business. As such, LBM Expo ’08 is proudly wearing its crown. Furthermore, regional trade shows tout the most targeted marketplace for both attendees and exhibitors alike. When valuable education is offered, the attendee incentive becomes that much stronger than coming to just view new products. And when we added the $how $pecial initiative, it served as an icebreaker for many exhibitors to turn prospects in purchasers. Here are a few of the jewels sparkling brightly in the crown of LBM Expo ’08: There was a 13 percent increase in the buyer attendee population as compared to LBM Expo ’07. There was an increase in the number of retail member companies in attendance as compared to LBM Expo ’07. The percentage of retailers in attendance remained consistent with prior show years. Nearly 80 percent in attendees hail from the northeastern states, our targeted market.
