Where do you get to visit with hundreds or thousands of prospects? Trade shows of course. Most cities have consumer trade shows that bring thousands of people through the gates, and these are your prospective clients. A trade show allows you the advantage of interacting on a very limited basis with a lot of people for a very short period of time. And while it is not likely that you will remember too many faces from the trade show, most people who are interested in your services will remember you. Trade shows give you a chance to pass out your collateral materials and answer questions that people have about your industry. Most of all, it helps to establish your name in their mind so that there is a familiarity to your business name.
