Glad to see an initiative to re-think the current state of adult B2B trade shows, much needed. As we sponsor/attend these shows relatively frequently, I will share my thoughts/suggestions in a bit for the benefit of future shows.

More than ever companies need to work together!

Good to see people wanting to work together to better the whole industry. I like :)

I know you're saying that in jest, but I have no doubt that you guys COULD put on a super show. I look back at the past things you guys have done and how smoothly they've been run and have no doubt that if you wanted to, you could do it as well as anyone.

If I can find the time I'll publish a list of suggestions for everyone to review... not the least of which would be some more dramatic events that teach attendees how to meet one another and really get out of the box to grow their business.

I'm happy to do one seminar/speaking engagement per show about this, as an open invite to all of you. After the outstanding feedback in Phoenix Corey and I lobbied to do one again in Hollywood and were again truly gratified by attendee feedback. We're definitely onto something of value, here.




Lastly, let it be known that if there is ever a show void in SE Florida then I'll be throwing one there. Please don't make me do that, I don't want to be in the show business!
