The social media programs included real-time engagement and rewards for attendees throughout the convention center as well as on the show floor. Feedback and presentation topics were solicited in the moment and used to make the content and experience more attendee-driven. Purposefully designed to attract attention and drive interaction on social platforms, booths went beyond traditional frame and support.

"Trade shows are excellent opportunities to integrate social media tactics and tools so that companies can build client relationships based on shared platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and utilizing app's like Bump," said David G. Breen, Principal Designer at VDA Productions. "Our tradeshow booth designs create opportunities for our clients to drive traffic while encouraging engagement. For this event, the entire exhibit space was designed to serve as a spark for building long-term relationships with the attendee via an online community, not just within the confines of the physical booth space."

"There are so many touch points for both the sponsoring companies and the attendees at an event of this scale. Building relationships and connecting attendees with the brand are paramount," said Kevin Hart, President, Creative Director at HB. "HB and VDA worked in lockstep to deliver creative points of immersion throughout attendees' experiences, driving them to connect via social media, through design elements, booth construct and more to ensure the trade show resonated with the attendees long after it ended."

Whether you are business to consumer (B2C) or business to business (B2B), trade shows are an important part of the marketing mix, offering effective platforms for leveraging social media efforts in order to strengthen client relationships and engagement, acquire new business, and augment ROI.  All are much needed elements for success.
