YOUR COSTSTravel | Time | Putting your business on hold
GET THE BEST RETURN POSSIBLENew contacts | New technologyNew business methods | New clients & partners
WHAT CAN HAPPEN.● Generally overwhelming (30% of
attendee’s never enter the exhibit hall) ● “Shiny Swag Syndrome” ● App Exhaustion ● Distraction + Short Breaks Between
Sessions
HOW TO AVOID THIS.● Make a list before you go● Stick to your priorities● Plan breaks● Who’s your buddy? Pair up!
WHAT TO LOOK FOR● Meetup groups● Sponsored happy hours● Big sponsored parties● Hosted dinners
PRO TIPS● Think about your goal going in (it’s ok
to just have fun!)● Know who’s hosting and why they
matter to your business● Have 2 conversation starters (relevant
to your business) ready.
THERE’S A LOT OF GREAT CONTENT OUT THERE!● Make a mission statement for your time at the conference● Know your key areas of interest for business growth● Evaluate each session against these areas and mission● If two sessions conflict ask:
○ Will there be a recording available?○ Do you know someone else that might be going that can fill you in?○ Is there another session scheduled?
● Organize your list ahead of time● Be prepared to take notes● Attend session with a colleague so you can discuss and gain different
perspectives● Hang out after sessions and ask speakers questions (during and after!)● Sit down next to people you don’t know and introduce yourself● Don’t be afraid to let go of old ideas● Make a list of action items
