Pre-Event Checklist
Run through this before you leave for the expo. Arriving prepared means your team can focus on conversations, not setup.
Prepare a technology narrative for your stall — highlight processes, not just products.
Update your catalog with processing details, surface tolerances, and quality certificates.
Build QR entry points for buyers to access technical documentation on the spot.
Test AI visualization with the technical surface variations buyers typically ask about.
Create a FAQ sheet for the most common questions from architecture and project buyers.
Coordinate with your processing team on how to handle live order fulfillment queries.
Post-Event Action Plan
The 14 days after an expo are your highest-leverage window. Execute this sequence while conversations are still warm.
- Send technical documentation packs to buyers who requested specs at the stall.
- Follow up with a visual summary of your product range and processing capabilities.
- Route high-knowledge buyers directly to a technical sales conversation within 48 hours.
- Set calendar reminders for buyers who indicated project timelines of 3 to 6 months.
- Review lead tags and qualify top opportunities for sample dispatch before day 7.
Buyer Questions to Prepare For
