Dear Exhibitor,
CHARO Community Development Corporation along with The Greater El Sereno Chamber of Commerce is holding its 2nd Annual BUSINESS EXPO on Thursday, June 8, 2006 at the CHARO Corporate. The hours are from 8:30 am to 3:00 pm.
Last year's EXPO was exciting, successful and it showed the community pride felt by those who did business in and around Los Angeles.
The EXPO provides you with an excellent opportunity to display your products and/or services to the businesses attending on this day. Increased name recognition, possible leads in future sales and community involvement are just some of the benefits from participating.
Since the number of booths is limited and booth locations will be assigned on first come first serve basis, we urge you to act today. Use this excellent opportunity to exhibit your company's products and services.
Please review and fill out the application. Return it as soon as possible with your name and have your check made out to CHARO Community Development Corporation. For more information call the office at 323-269-0751.
Once again, we look forward to your participation. Don't be left out - respond now to this exciting and important invitation.
Janet Puentes, Director CHARO SBA Women's CenterBUSINESS EXPO 2006……It Makes A Difference
INCREASED NAME RECOGNITION
EXPO 2006 will give you an ideal opportunity to meet many of your future customers "face to face" in an informal setting. They get to know you and your products and/or services. The EXPO presents a first - class, public relations opportunity
EXPOSURE
. Your Company will be featured, along with other exhibitors, in an advertising campaign.
BUILDING A MAILING LIST
By offering a drawing for a booth prize, you can ask the customer to complete a card with their name, address and phone number. Those names become your mailing list of interested customers. Your investment is insignificant compared to the hundreds of dollars you would have to invest in purchasing an up-to-date, custom-made mailing list.
MARKET RESEARCH
You can conduct a survey that asks customers about their needs, buying habits and interest in your product/service area. Offer them an inexpensive gift for completing the survey.
CONSUMER EDUCATION
Is your product or service new or unique? EXPO 2006 is a great place to demonstrate what's special about your business.
GENERATE LEADS
Ask booth visitors if they need your booth product or services. These questions should be included as part of the information collected on your survey or prize drawing cards.
COMPETITOR ANALYSIS
Your competition will be at the EXPO 2006 to! Take this time to visit their booth(s). Notice how the public is responding to their materials. How does your business compare in price, advertising, material, staff presentation style and their ability?
NETWORKING
Running a small business can be a lonely and awesome responsibility. It doesn't have to be. Other owners of small businesses can be great resources to you...and you to them. You will get to know them at EXPO 2006.
