How Did We Go? Measuring Your Exhibition Success
You may feel pretty good about how your brand did at the last exhibition or tradeshow. Maybe you met a lot of new people and everyone seemed receptive and eager to learn more. That’s a great thing, but it doesn’t tell you anything concrete. You must do research to determine if you truly were successful. This is vital to maximising your ROI (return on investment) and improving your approach for future events.
