Are you exhibiting at a coffee festival or trade show? Or considering it?
Exhibiting is a good business choice. It’s a straightforward, face-to-face way of engaging with your community and clients (current and future). It can allow you to shape the face of your business. And it’s an opportunity to make a more lasting impression than some methods of digital outreach.
Yet without the right preparation, you won’t see the return on investment you’re looking for.
