This just in – trade show attendance is up across the USA. That’s it in a nutshell. Numbers from end of the year and beginning of 2011 have seen a marked difference from 2008-2009. Shows are actually, once again, selling out exhibition space. Get on the band wagon and join the parade. However, what did we all just learn? Less extravagance, sound fiscal decisions, less grandiose gestures, and keeping our noses to the grindstone. Congratulations, we have all learned some lessons – so let’s move on and make business happen!
