Introduction
Coil Winding, Insulation & Electrical Manufacturing
Berlin 2004 will be a great success if you take the time to read the
Handbook and implement the information therein. Take advantage of the unique
opportunities we offer our exhibitors. As an exhibitor at Coil Winding,
Insulation & Electrical Manufacturing 2004, one of your major objectives
should be to meet as many of your current and potential customers as
possible. You should already have identified many prime targets for future
business and should therefore use the CWIEME Exhibition to convert them. Our
job as organisers is to deliver to you additional potential clients who
represent ‘new blood’ for your business. We aim to assist you by
removing the headaches and most of the cost!
An exhibition is not just a day break from the office and
normal routine. It is an opportunity to expand and develop your business.
You will be able to meet existing and potential customers. CWIEME will be
doing its utmost to bring the potential buyers to the exhibition, it is up
to you to make the best possible use of this situation. You could simply
turn up and wait for the buyers to come to you. You should be pro-active.
You can achieve so much with a little effort! Your job as an exhibitor is to
inform, interest and entice prospects to your stand. Let them know what you
plan on exhibiting, where to find you and why they should visit your stand.
According to industry research, 76% of exhibition attendees come with a
fixed agenda and a coordinated pre-show plan can increase the number of
quality visitors by up to a third. If they are unaware of your participation
it’s a gamble whether or not they even find your stand. 91% of attendees
to trade shows rated exhibitions as their number one source of purchasing
information. Visitors want to learn, study and evaluate companies in order
to facilitate buying. They view exhibits as an important resource for
getting immediate answers to their questions.

your customers allows Free entry into the exhibition hall

plans. Charges will be limited to additional security and cleaning services.
Please call the organizers to discuss your plans and needs.
FOLLOW
UP AFTER THE SHOW
Perhaps the most vital part of successful exhibiting is the follow-up. It
is claimed that only 1/3 of exhibition leads are ever pursued. This occurs
because planning never takes follow-ups into account. Selling comes to an
abrupt stop when the final visitor leaves the stand. The next day, salesmen
are back to ‘real life’, they have a backlog of routine work, weeks go
by and leads which were warm at the exhibition grow cold and eventually they
are thrown away. The solution is to plan ahead. Work out what you are going
to do with your new contacts.
