What is Trade Show Engagement Optimisation?

You may have heard of Search Engine Optimisation (SEO).  Well, Trade Show Engagement Optimisation (TEO) follows a similar methodology. 

Just like your website, at a trade show, your exhibition booth is your shop window, a tool to help you demonstrate your expertise, and, vitally, capture qualified leads for your sales team to convert.  

Your role is to make sure your booth attracts high-quality traffic and that your exhibition team has the right engagement skills to increase your chance of converting visitors into highly qualified leads.  

Since 2007, we have managed over 3000 exhibition engagement projects in over 100 cities across 53 countries. Over this time, we’ve created the playbook for high-performance exhibitions or live marketing events, which we call TEO.  

It covers five core pillars: aligning your Business Growth and Exhibition Strategies, mapping the Attendee Journey, upskilling your Booth Staff, measuring KPI’s, and implementing an effective Follow-up process . 

Give your business the best possible chance to excel at your next exhibition.
