Trade Show Pet Peeves

Erich: Kristine Shreve is the Director of Marketing and Outreach for Lynnie Pinnie and Applique Getaway. She is also the host of Women + Business and the founder of the Women in Garment Decoration group.

Terry: What was the first trade show you attended and the first show you worked as a vendor?

Erich: We titled this show Pet Peeves, but what’s your favorite part of working shows?

Terry: OK, let’s talk about unreasonable requests we’ve gotten while working a booth:

  • I need these twelve sample garments printed with my graphics
  • I brought my machine with me. Could we plug it in and you take a look at it?
  • Could you teach me how to use your software? CorelDraw? Photoshop?

Erich: Any other show pet peeves?

  • The food
  • Heat/AC
  • Drayage

Terry: Give us an update on Applique Getaway.

Erich: Where can our listeners connect with you?
