Tools
The worksheet downloads are fully adjustable to meet the needs of any organization. Veteran exhibitors use the tools from show-to-show to accurately measure performance, and then as a framework for future projects.

2. The Pre-show Checklist prepares organizations for upcoming shows, with a series of prompts to organize thoughts and generate an actionable gameplan to get the most out of the exhibiting investment.
- Show Information/Data

3. The Post-Show Cheat Sheet is one of the most valuable tools an organization can have; passing along information from team to team, and when memories of the show are fresh (and before staff may move on).

- Show Analysis Exercises
- Competitor Analysis
- Exhibit Planning
- Staffing Review
