BACK IT UP?HOW DO YOU LIKE THESE APPLES?

WHY IS EXHIBITING WORTH THE INVESTMENT?

What They’ll Say if You’re Not There!Don’t let them wonder if you’re still in business. Operators buy more from companies they know and see at LCT events. Don’t leave your customers and prospects vulnerable to your competitors that took the time to give them face-to-face attention. Out of sight, out of mind.

New PotentialWe recruit new buyers for you! LCT East delivers new leads. 34

percent of LCT East show-goers in 2008 were fi rst-time attendees.

“As fi rst time attendees we really didn’t know what to expect. We said that as long as we came away from the conference with one new piece of information we would consider it worthwhile. Well we

came away with far more than that. Everything was of value.”—Peter and Susan Hawkins, Signature Limousine, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

Sales At LCT East you can reach up to 700 operators in two days. All reasonable costs considered, you’re looking at an average of $8 per lead. Not bad for 2 days of work! Or you can spend months on the phone trying to get time with 700 operators long enough to tell them about yourself. It’s also a perfect opportunity to close sales or unload inventory before year end.

Interdependence Operators and suppliers are interdependent. The vitality of the industry depends on the existence and solvency of both. Work together, do not become complacent.

Credibility By exhibiting you prove you have the capital and resources to provide the best product and/or service, as well as the longevity for a lasting relationship. You can introduce prospects to your current happy customers. There’s no better proof than that!

Research You can’t sell unless you know your customers. By being at the show, you’ll quickly fi nd out what issues they are facing so you can better target their needs.
