Strengthening your investment
MONTREAL – By participating to the Education Fair of Montreal, exhibitors are investing wisely in the development or their organization. It is legitimate that they want to make sure their investment will have been used efficiently and will generate results.
It is actually not always easy to measure the fallout from your participation to public events. The most common mistake is to only base your results on number of visitors met or recruited on site. It is a mistake because we know that participation to public events can generate results for over six months after the event. In fact, the fair is one of the most efficient media for its outstanding range. And, event more, the most interactive media!
Several measures can be used to maximize your recruitment at the fair, as well as to collect precious information on the visitors who stopped by your booth and to make a follow-up after the event. Your communicational approach, the design of your booth, the animations presented such as demonstrations, contests, draws, quiz and skill tests are many ways to help you establish a personalized and unforgettable contact. Here is precisely what you need to do: To make sure the candidates will remember you by developing your own winning approach!
