With the tradeshow season approaching, now is the time to start thinking through your tradeshow giveaways for the new year. JDA Promo offers a wide variety of tradeshow giveaways for any audience or any budget, and our Account Executives can help you select items that support your tradeshow marketing goals.
Key Questions to Ask When Choosing Tradeshow Giveaways
Understanding your target audience is a key part of good tradeshow strategy, so here are a few things to keep in mind.
- Do the majority of your team and potential customers travel to the tradeshow?
- Will you have to ship the giveaways to the venue?
- In what type of setting do most attendees work? Are they typically working in an office or at a job site?
- Is the tradeshow for a wide variety of industries or specific to one?
- What is your goal for the giveaway? Do you want to promote a specific product or encourage further engagement with your brand after the show is over?
