"If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there" is a famous quote from Alice in Wonderland. Unfortunately, it also describes the way many exhibitors approach tradeshows. Industry research finds that only 24% of exhibitors set objectives. And of those who do set objectives, less than 10% take the critical next steps of committing the objectives to writing, developing a written action plan, then executing and measuring their performance and results against the plan.

They use targeted pre-show marketing to get “in the mind” and “on the agenda” of the right attendees before the show opens.
