Wish I knew. Tis the Holy Grail, isn't it?

Ok, let me try ... what would be something "in between"? How about:

Hmmm. Instead of five competing music things blasting or absolutely none, how about piped in music to the entire exhibit floor ...

Whoa! And charging advertisers for commercial time in between!! I need to patent that one! ... Told you there are ways to make money at shows that have not yet been tried.

No real gossip but funny thing about the smoking, since we all had to pile back out into the hall or out the back to smoke, I actually make 90% of my contacts and bussiness at this show while having a smoke and chatting to others doing the same, turn out the be a great ice breaker.

Already checked that out.... Some showrooms are too loud, ours is usually too quiet early on - there has to be a happy medium. In some shows in Montreal we had some piped in music, but most want an arm & a leg....like having to pay for the music system plus a union engineer or two on hand all the time. Then there is the hassle of getting the commercials together (that is it's own problem since most don't make their deadlines) and then paying someone reliable to do the commercials. Not sure it is worth all the hassle. And then trying to please everyone with the music.

In a bigger showroom than we have it would maybe make a nice addition to the booth package, and worth the hassle.
