One of the best ways to find new customers is at vendor events. Go as a vendor to network with the guests or go as a guest to network with the vendors. Works both ways!

Just had a vendor show this weekend...I got 100 new leads and 10 shows booked....pretty good for a small town
 
That is a great idea!!! I'm really trying to find ways to grow. What are some good ways to find vendor events?
:thumbup:
 
Tell me about it, i would love to do a vendor event, but EVERYONE i find already has a PC consultant attending grrr. very frustrating
 
go to craiglists and go to events. people and community events will post there. Also, if your community maintains a website they will post events there as well.
 
I have...not a lot of postings, and they already say they have a PC person :(
i keep trying tho!

Trust me since I live in the same area it is very hard to find events that don't already have a consultant but just keep looking!
 
The other thing to keep in mind. Most people that actually get an event sign up for it anywhere to six months to a year in advance. So you might have to start looking way into the future. Good luck!
