Trade Shows No More
If you’re a business owner like me, you know what the purpose of trade shows are. Trade shows have the ability to bring industries together to present new information and display their latest products and services. They take place for several days in convention centers all over the country.
If you’re a business owner like me, you probably know that trade shows are dying. The pandemic has pretty much eliminated large in-person gatherings. However, is this really bad news?
Packing vehicles and booking flights and hotel rooms are a pain. Once you get to the trade show location, you have to pay extra costs just for an electrician to move an extension cord. While trade shows can be a frustration for business owners, they can be like a mini vacation for employees.
From the employees perspective, it was like a mini vacation. I would often approach the tables at trade shows and think to myself,
Geez, how was it that they ran out of literature on the first day? How is it that the table has their lunch on top of their marketing tables and why are they hiding behind their electronic devices?
So before you know it, you’re thousands of dollars out of your bank account. From an owners perspective, this is not a wise investment.
Internet Traffic is Increasing
Let’s face it - trade shows were fading away anyway. According to the Houston Chronicle, the attendance at Houston’s Offshore Technology Conference between 2015 and 2017 fell from 95,000 to below 65,000.
The death of trade shows is not bad news. Let’s look at the bright side: No more dealing with uncertain sales, canceled flights, preparation for trade shows, and exhausted employees sleeping with their headphones hiding behind the table wishing for the best.
All the information delivered at an in-person trade show can be available virtually.
