Another suggestion is if the hall is slow, not just your exhibit, is to have one of the booth staffers identify possible clients or partners that are exhibiting at the show and search them out. If it is slow for you it probably is for them as well and finding new opportunites might be as easy as going to the next aisle over. I had this work for a client at The Restaurant Show who did not do much pre-show marketing, and it turned into a vendor partner relationship, and a few potential clients. Great suggestions, Mike.

Trade shows are a powerful marketing medium, but like all marketing mediums, they aren't perfect. Problems will arise on the show floor. It's how we deal with problems that makes a difference.

We don't often receive advice on how to deal with situations that are less-than-perfect, or out of our control. Well done! Thank you for sharing staffing tips on when shows are slow.
