TradeShow Teacher Announces Book Signing of "The Complete Idiots Guide to Trade Shows"

Aventura, FL, March 19, 2009 --(PR.com)-- More than 13,000 trade shows and conventions are held in America each year. They range from the huge, glitzy Las Vegas events that draw tens of thousands and cost the exhibiting companies millions of dollars, to smaller regional affairs that cost thousands. However, whether you’re Microsoft® or Sally’s Gift Baskets, it’s important to get the most out of the dollars spent on trade shows. These shows become easily overwhelming to the attending employees. Between traveling, setting up the booth, exhibiting, and “walking the floor” in search of new products or clients, there’s always too much to do in too little time. How do you make the most of out your convention budget?

Seasoned exhibitor and TradeShow Consultant Linda Musgrove has the answers in The Complete Idiot’s Guide® to Trade Shows. She will be signing copies of this book at The Exhibitor Show, held at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, NV on March 24, 2009 from 1:30pm - 2:30pm in the Exhibit City News Booth number 810.

In this unique and practical book, she shares her insider’s knowledge accumulated over many years in the business about:

- Booth costs and how to save money-- and still have a great booth
- Marketing tips inside and outside the show
- Staffing and travel strategies
- Juggling sales, customer relations, and innovation at the show
