Workshop: EXPO Do's & Don'ts - How to get a return on your investment

Taking part in an expo can be beneficial for your company's bottom line. Networking to show-goers and fellow expo participants can often bring new customers. Participating in an expo can be a lot of work, though. From working with the expo's staff, to coordinating your own staff and preparing materials to give away, there are a lot of things that must be planned.

To help address “working an expo” the Chamber has organized 2 two hour workshops to ensure success for our members and to assist them with getting a return on their investment.  Both workshops will present the same material...you pick the workshop most convenient for your schedule.

The workshop will be presented by Arturo Gonzalez, Small Business Development Counselor with the UTPA Small Business Development Center .  Moreover, specialty advertising and sign companies will be on hand to answer questions about promotional products and signage.  Here are the details:
