Trade shows offer companies a prime opportunity to showcase products and services and build relationships with potential buyers. They generate solid leads that can help with business growth. Yet to be successful with trade show marketing, your booth must stand out. While aesthetics and engagement tactics play a role in your efforts’ overall success, it’s the people representing your company that have the most significant impact on your ROI. In this week’s Happy Hour, we feature an article that outlines what to look for when hiring trade show staff. We also bring you three-event marketing trends to expect in 2021 and Gen Z marketing tips.
For many companies, exhibiting at a trade show is highly beneficial. Trade shows give companies the chance to engage with potential customers through face-to-face interactions, building trust among prospects. But if you don’t have the right people communicating your message, your efforts will fall flat. The impact that your staff has on your trade show ROI is enormous. In fact, they can make or break you. In this article, Rockway Exhibits outlines five qualities you should look for when hiring staff for a trade show exhibit.
This time last year, we were gearing up for a record-breaking year in the live events industry. Little did we know, the industry would face disruption as we’ve never seen before, thanks to the pandemic. As we head into a new year, still facing the challenges of hosting events during COVID, event marketers are busy preparing for a new era of live events. Here, we dive into three event marketing trends to expect in the new year.
With a direct spending power of up to $143 billion in the U.S. alone, it’s no wonder that marketers are eager to connect with Gen Z. Gen Z, aka digital natives, were born between 1996 – 2010 and are the largest generation in the global population. For brands, connecting with this generation is essential for obvious reasons, but this generation sets themselves apart from their millennial predecessors in several ways. To effectively reach Gen Z, event marketers need to understand what makes them tick. This article digs into what Gen Z cares about and why it matters in event marketing.

TESTIMONIAL
I utilized ATN Event Staffing for a Southwest employee appreciation event held at Universal Studios Hollywood. This was our first event to utilize ATN, and our expectations were beyond exceeded; in fact, we have utilized ATN for several other events since. There are a few things that set them apart from other agencies, but the thing we value the most is providing Team Leads. My own team is so busy managing every other aspect of our event, and not having to manage event staff has allowed us to make our events run so much better. The staff ATN providers are helpful, happy to be there and work hard – as if they were employees of our company.
