Home & Garden Shows are a great venue for both consumers and service providers to meet & greet.

Almost any home product or service that you can imagine will be represented at a Home Show. You'll meet contractors landscapers, architects and interior designers. You'll also have a chance to see sampling of products such as the newest in flooring and walkways to transform your home and add to its appeal. View displays of kitchens, baths, windows, doors, appliances, furnishings, spas, pools, fireplaces , sunrooms, and so much more. Come with ideas, and an open mind. You'll leave with inspiration.
· You can meet hundreds of exhibitors under one roof.
· Discover new, interesting products and services
· Find the best resources in remodeling, landscaping, and design services
· Compare and, save
· Speak with experts
Special offers and show pricing will be some of the best you can get on desired products and services. Vendors invest a lot when they participate in shows and they want to recoup costs by offer pricing that you may not get elsewhere. My husband and I were able to get a $10,000, 8 person Hot Tub for 4,600 with the cover, steps, accessories and delivery. Deals like these exist for buyers who a prepared to act fast.
Tips: If you are going with a specific project in mind do a bit of research before establish if the information and offer you get form show vendors are truly good. Be ready to act fast. In the current economical environment vendors are very motivated to make a deal at close to cost.
Enjoy yourself! Going to a Home show is fun and low cost entertainment, kids are normally free and discount coupons can be found on the show websites. Shows have something for the entire family with meeting a celebrity personality to seeing unusually exhibits. If you aren't in the marketing for home improvements services now, as homeowners it's inevitable that you will, being informed of various services and products will come in handy!

Get a return on your investment. Attending shows are an investment and you will want to get a return. By setting goals and creating a plan you can easily determine the outcome of your participation. Here are a few suggestions to get the most out of a show.
Collect contact information: Consumers who may only want information now may be a sale in the coming months. By collecting contact information and sending emails periodically about your services, you will stay in their minds when they are ready to buy.
Get email addresses: containing the cost of after show follow up can be done by emails. Emails can be tracked to see who opened them, who clicked through to your website and who is not interested at basically no cost.
Strike while the iron is hot! If you promise to send more information, a sample or to call to set an appointment, don't put it off. You have a small window of opportunity while the show is fresh in your prospects minds. Don't lose a potential sale with bad follow up.
Share the cost- consider inviting another service provider that complements your product or service to join you and help defer some of the expense of participation. This can be very productive as you may attract consumers that otherwise may not have considered you.
