I need a few suggestions to keep this simple.

Things to consider:

I will be alone.
I will have 2-4ft tables.
Bringing canopy and PC banner.
I do have on hand some door prize slips, 2 lead boxes, old season's best, old bamboo tongs, citrus peelers, twixits, plenty of recipe cards, mini catalogs (fall/winter and holiday), wedding registry brochures and recuriting brochures.
Drawing? FREE COOKING SHOW or product??
Not serving food or drinks.

My main goal is to get leads-wedding registry, shows and recurits.

Questions:
Display?
Giveaways at event or at their show, when they recurit or when they setup registry?


Any suggestions.
 
1. Create an eye-catching display that showcases your product or service. You could use the door prize slips, lead boxes, old season's best, old bamboo tongs, citrus peelers, twixits, recipe cards, mini catalogs, and wedding registry brochures to make a visually appealing display.2. Have a giveaway at the event, such as a free cooking show or a product from your company. This will draw attention to your booth and give potential customers something to remember you by. 3. Offer special discounts or incentives for those who sign up for a wedding registry or book a show. 4. Hand out promotional materials such as flyers or postcards with information about your business. 5. Have a drawing for a special prize at the end of the event, such as a gift certificate or a free product. This will encourage people to come back and visit your booth again.
