Post Show round up - now it's time to get serious
The show is over, and we've packed up our bin wash machine ready to head home. So what's the verdict?
Firstly, we enjoyed it. There was a fantastic response with thousands of visitors and we personally loved every minute. We launched our new 2016/17 bin wash at the show and exhibiting in Manchester is a first. But was it all worth it?
To start with, we received a good number visitors to our stand and enjoyed a good number of solid and genuine enquiries. We were complimented on the standard of our stand display and graphics too
Then, let's look at the business we did on the day. It's not common, for specialist machinery of this type, so receive orders on the day. However due to the queues outside the show it opened early and we'd sold the show machine by 10am
Our MD Peter Morley said "it was simply incredible, the doors opened at around 9.30am half an hour early, and by just before 10am we had actually sold the show machine on the stand"
Over both days we received good, solid enquiries and we were busy throughout the day. We endeavour to respond quickly to all enquiries and during the busier periods this was a challenge.
Peter went on to say; "We had overseas visitors from Malta, Denmark and Ireland, as well as a healthy mix of regional, northern and Midlands based customers. The show was evidently a success"
Overall - yes it was very much worth while and we achieved what we set out to do and always hope for which is to attract new business and see some solid enquiries
In fact, at the show's breakdown as we were preparing to leave, and, after the show was over, we all expressed regret that it was over!
