Taking the first step into the trade show floor can be overwhelming at first if you have never been to one. All you see is beauty vendors with lots of AWESOME products displayed and you want it ALL!
Put a list together before you come to Future Pro Expo of things that you need to help you through school and that will be useful to you then put together a list of things you wish to have. This will help you as you are looking at all the products out there.
Walk the whole trade show floor at least once before you buy anything. You don’t want to buy anything on impulse before seeing what else is out there. Plus, there maybe some new product introductions from the different vendors.
Talk to the vendor representatives and ask questions about the products and tools. This is also a great way to get educated on different products. Most vendors will demonstrate the products for you and let you touch and feel and may even have samples for you to try.
Keep your purse and money secure and close to you as you are walking the floor. It is very easy to get distracted while you are talking to vendors and looking at products.
Remember if you can’t make it to this year’s Future Pro Expo, we will be blogging LIVE and will be broadcasting the competition LIVE via our Live video stream and chat! www.empire.edu/fpe.
