What is expo: Definition and 94 Discussions

I'm in a children's expo feb 28th, and they'd like me to incorporate in my booth...... a 'cooking with kids' aspect.. and I'm just not quite sure that I can realistically be doing a 'cooking with kids' demo, while manning my booth at the same time. Any ideas, or thoughts?

I'm doing a Women's Expo at the end of March--We're supposed to "think Spring" for Easter and Mother's Day and the coordinator wants us to "have the opportunity to build your team along with selling cash and carry items." I've never done cash and carry and am a bit nervous at investing...

Hi all, I have a downline gal who wants to be a part of a craft and vendor expo at a Nursing home setting. There will be another PC person there, but she will be in another room in the building. Do you think it would be ethical for me to give her the go ahead to set up?

I had a table at a local wedding expo a couple of weeks ago. I had a really nice display and greeted everyone that came by (by the end of the day, my face hurt from smiling so much!). Everyone I greeted I gave out the PC wedding tri-fold with my contact information on it. I had a drawing for...

I am putting together some gift bags for an expo and when I ordered my supplies (mini cattys) I am being charged S&H and Tax. I thought we got free S&H??

Ok, I hope I added the pictures to the bottom of this correctly. I did my first Bridal Expo on Sunday. Thanks to all of you who gave me advice. I have pictures of my booth on my phone, but for some reason, can't add them right now. Ok, I did my booth (which was only a 6 ft. table) in a...

I am looking for cute gift ideas for a Holiday Expo. They showed a picture in a previous holiday mini catalog of a silicone trivit wrapped in ribbon with small things filling it. I'm looking for ideas such as that. Thanks

I started a new thread, this may have been covered but I have to really focus on preparing myself for a expo in Sept for 2 days (doing it by myself) and another booth in October for 1 night that I'm doing with my team. There's an estimated 3,000 for the first event and maybe 1,000 for the...

I need to fill out the vendor form and they are asking what products/services to be displayed. I'm trying to come with a snazzy short sum of what I have to offer. There's not a huge amount of space to write this in and I don't know how to talk short. Any ideas?

I have a booth at a local mall for a womens expo this weekend and I will have 2 20 minute segments talking about Pampered Chef and whatever I want. I don't want to do a demo because there is no where to clean up anything and it is an ALL day function. Any ideas on how to fill time and keep the...

I will be doing my first Wedding Expo/Fair one month from today and I have no idea where to begin. What supplies will need? How many fliers? Should I do a fake registry board? I thought about using some of the new products in part of the display since the new season starts not too long after...

Does anyone know of a consultant in Tucson, AZ that might want to team up to do a wedding expo everyother month? It's $50 for the month you do the expo.... please email me off list if you know anyone. [email protected]

I'm a newer consultant and just moved to this new area so I'm trying to get my name out there. There is an upcoming Pet Expo which is a fundraising type event for a local animal shelter. Do you think it would be worth it to do a pet expo? The cost isn't that much but wasn't sure I should do...

I'm doing a table at a Home Based Business Expo tomorrow, and I'm somewhat at a loss of what to bring to display at the table. I know I'm bringing catalogs and lots of opportunity brochures/DVDs/etc, but should I bring products? Maybe everything you get in your starter kit? I don't knoooow...

A Women's Expo booth? If so, how well did it go?

After just about breaking my back carrying my products to a bridal expo I am in search of a carrying case. I have looked at the rolling case through PC, but $90 seems like alot to pay for one case. I am considering buying a set of rolling luggage, 3 -4 pieces. Has anyone else used this to...

I was at a bridal expo last Sunday & met a bride-to-be's mother who was very interested in joining PC. When she walked away I could even hear her telling her daughter, "I'm serious about this. I want to sign up." My only dilemma is that she said that right now her husband is going through...

Hi - I signed up to do a bridal expo but have only been doing PC for 4 months. Can anyone give me some nice ideas on how to set up the table - I'm not too creative - so any advice would help. Also, I wanted to do two raffles - one, to draw people in and the other only for brides that register...

I will be setting up a Pampered Chef booth at a local bridal expo and wanted to see if anyone has ideas of how I should set up. Thanks, Michelle

I went to an expo two weeks ago and had a lady call me last night saying that she was impressed with the catalog and wanted to meet with me to talk about the business opportunity. She also wants to talk to me about the 'wellness' business she is currently doing. This will be my first...

a door prize slip I can use for a bridal expo this month-I have done a search under "wedding" and "bride" and "door"......I bet someone has created one of these-I just can't find it!

Howdy! I posted pictures of my displays etc. from the booth I had at a Direct Selling Expo on Saturday, if your interested, in the photo section. There were about 20 different Home Based businesses there. Some I've never heard of! It was the first year, so it was pretty slow. I had 12...

I thought about something like the gathering thread, but have several companies represented and rent a hall. It would be a recruit and/or book only type event. I've been to one before and there was a large turn out.

I am participating, along with 2 of my consultants, in a bridal expo next month and being that I am NOT creative, I thought I would ask for some help! Let me know what kind of decorations you think we should do using our products as well as any other ideas you have for 3 people working 1 booth...

My new recruit and I are doing a 6-hour booth at a Hispanic Bridal/Quinceanera expo. I'm not a stranger to doing booths, but we're both VERY new to the Hispanic market. I've been listening to the Hispanic session from conference 2006...awesome! Do you guys have any ideas about how to market...

I'm wondering if anyone has done any Wedding Expos with The Great Bridal Expo? They are National and I just spoke to a rep who said they have Pampered Chef at their shows all over the country. There is a show in Boston, but the cost is phenomenal, and I'm wondering 1) Has anyone done these...

Anyone go to the Expo when it comes to your town? Just curious!? I am off to our local SD Expo today to take some workshop and crop all night! Can't say that I love to crop but I do love some of the products of SEI and their easy does it 1 hour scrapbook kits!

Hi....I have been pouring thru the fundraiser threads and feel like my eyeballs are going to pop out. I need to call this lady back that contacted me who is a breast cancer survivor. She wants to do a one or two day event/expo (I know nothing about expos and have never been involved in any...

I've been collecting names of consultants of other home based businesses while working craft fairs and am going to rent out a small community center in our area for a Home Businesss Expo. Instead of concentrating on selling or bookings, it will be more of a recruiting session with booths for...
