Free stuff? I think everyone don’t mind some free stuff. I wasn’t realise trade shows can get more than some backpacks and drinking bottles. John Chow shows you some of his tips on getting free stuff at trade shows. I am drooling over the photo that John took – he got things like 1GB flash drive, 2GB RAM and watch etc. This alone makes me to read his article. He introduces number of ways:
- Ask For The Free Stuff
- Attend The Press Conferences or Product Demos
- Make An Appointment
- Crash The Parties
- Walk The Show Floor On The Last Day
- Get A Media Pass
As far as I can predict, going to companies party and media pass have higher chances to get freebies. I wouldn’t think company will give out 2GB RAM that easily, unless they know you’re going to promote for them. :)
