Sell On-Site
This is the most frequent comment we hear from attendees! Consider pre-sales with on-site pickup, point-of-sale transactions with shipping to the attendee’s home, or bringing merchandise with you. If you sell virtual items, sell download codes right on-site.
Offer Show-Specific Discounts
Attendees would like to see discounts offered to those in attendance, as is common at other industry events.
Consider Reservations or Ticket Systems
For popular displays, a “take a number” or sign-up system lets attendees walk the floor while waiting their turn. This is especially useful for higher-end hardware vendors who want one-on-one time with seriously interested customers.
Health Practices
Attendees often comment on the spread of germs, especially when trying simulators or VR headsets. Consider wipes to clean VR headsets between uses, or single-use covers.
Announce New Products
Attendees are looking for exhibitors and developers to announce new products. Use shows like FlightSimExpo as a platform to “wow the audience,” rather than just updating existing work.
Stay for the Whole Event
Attendees notice when exhibitors pack up early. Exhibitors who vacate their booth before 3pm on Sunday may be subject to penalties at future events.
