    I am participating in two seperate vendor fairs at local schools next week. I would welcome any ideas to help make my table stand out.

    Here is what I have planned so far. I ordered the four foot vinyl baner corporate sells to drape over the front of my table. I’ll run a drawing for 3 free rooms of carpet cleaned. I will have available for sale spotter (large and small bottles) and carpet rakes. I also plan on having a game of “discount dice” set up on the table. Customers who book an appointment at the fair will get to roll the “discount dice” to see how much of a discount they will receive. Roll a 1 or 2 get 5% off, roll a 3 or 4 get 10% off, roll a 5 or 6 get 15% off your bill.

    I’ll have a door prize (basket with some spotter, a HB bag, and a HB T-shirt). I also plan on having my laptop with me so I can loop some of our commercials, I’ll have poster boards with before and after pictures, tissues with fabric protector to demo, and a poster board with positive comments from customers, a few new pads, and my UM on display.

    What else will help me stand out and make a good positive impression??

    Thanks,
    Marc

    You have a lot of good stuff going there. The whole idea is finding a way to engage the potential customer. Be out front of the booth and interact. Your activities should help do that. Good Luck!

    Anything you can do that shows you are supporting the local schools, maybe put something up that says 10% donated to the local PTA or some school fundraiser.

    I just got back from a homeshow i worked in for 2 days this weekend. I am very happy with the turnout and think I did a great job getting my name out.

    The dice thing is a great idea. I am going to use that next time I do a street fair.

    We always have a big bowl of candy when we do fairs. Make sure there are a couple different types so they have to stop and think about what they want. You’ll get a lot of people that will stop by just for the candy, but you will also get to talk to a lot of people that would normally keep on walking.

    Good luck!

    I put just about everything I have that has a HB logo on my table. Coffee mugs, spotter bottles, the carpet cleaning and fabric protector brouchures in a plastic stand so they stand up. Business cards (regular and magnetc) I also have the banner for the table and if there is space I get the larger banner from my State owner to hang behind the booth.

    I make sure I have candy as well but only use “soft” candy so the kids won’t choke.
