Application For
Exhibit Space - 2009
Our exhibitors tell us
that the Decorated Apparel Expo is
their favorite trade show for the embroidery and screen printing
industries. There are many reasons why exhibitors feel this way. It's
not just because the DAX show gives you one of the best "cost of leads"
ratios in the industry. (cost of leads = cost of show divided by
number of leads generated) It's because of the entire DAX
experience. If you haven't exhibited at DAX yet, you'll just have to
imagine a show where there are no union labor requirements, the door
security people smile and speak English, and the staff take a genuine
interest in your well-being. The exhibit hall is carpeted, we negotiate
with the decorator to offer deeply discounted booth furnishings for your
use, and due to our smaller format, attendees stop to visit with you,
instead of walking past like "deer in the headlights." We'll provide you
with lunch on each show day*, morning coffee, and a Friday night party
where you will get some food and enjoy an opportunity to talk with
attendees.
Many of our exhibitors
tell us that DAX is both their favorite show, and their most profitable.
Check our exhibitor list, and if you know somebody who exhibits at DAX,
ask them what they think of the show. They'll tell you more about our
show than we can.
