Finally, we’re looking at a return of trade shows and conferences, many are 100% in-person. It’s been a while since you have planned to exhibit live.
I live and die by checklists for planning and packing. Now is the time to review your planning and packing processes to ensure everything is in place or to reorganize and streamline your procedures.
I created a checklist for planning and a checklist for packing that I use when we exhibit and I encourage all my clients to use as well. You can download mine by clicking on the links below.
Feel free to use these as a template and customize to suit your company’s needs.

As soon as you receive the exhibitor prospectus, make notes on all the important information such as deadlines, what is included (do you have to order tables and carpet?), how to reserve your booth location and anything else relevant to your success at the conference. Be sure to order services and furniture before the early bird deadline so you get the best deal!
