Time to Perfect Your Winning Strategy!
Whether you're a rookie supplier partner, or it's been a while since you've been in a PTAA Trade Show, this event is for you! We like to think that our annual Trade Show is pretty special - you've never been to a Trade Show like a PTAA Trade Show!
This in-person presentation will give all of our exhibiting supplier partners a chance to get to know the PTAA Trade Show and ask questions about what to expect from an experienced Supplier Partner.
Topics might include:
🎲 Should I wear a costume?

🎲 Who are the attendees?
🎲 How can I stand out?
🎲 How do I get extras like carpeting for my booth handled?
