These seasonal and targeted landscape trade shows offer many benefits for Landscape Pros including:
- connecting with peers
- learning about new solutions
- building industry credibility
- gaining insights on the trade
- evaluating competitors
Old school landscape trade shows deliver new opportunities
For those who dismiss landscape trade shows as outdated business gatherings that busy pros shouldn’t waste time on, nothing could be further from the truth.Even if you generate new business through online or automated engagement, today’s ultra-competitive business environment demands that business owners and managers build relationships with many important constituents including prospects, partners, vendors, and customers.
Time to get out, get connected, and get inspired
Research reveals that there’s no better way to create new opportunities for your business than in a face-to-face, concentrated environment where participants have self-selected and identified themselves as interested in a specific industry and related solutions.In a tailored environment like that, trade show attendees are highly likely to have interest in what you offer, are ready to network, and may even make purchases on the spot if your solution fits their needs and their budget.
“Every time I go to a landscape trade event, I learn something that can improve our operations or services. Even better, I get to connect with new people and gain insights from others on how to succeed in our local market.”
