Tips for Sampling:

  • For cost-effective sampling, only distribute samples to customers and prospects who have entered your booth to discuss your product.
  • Sampling further inside of the booth encourages attendees to stop in and speak with you.
  • Sampling at the edge of your booth encourages attendees to taste and keep walking. 
  • An appropriate sample size is typically a bite or drink. After attendees express interest, offer a larger sample.

How many samples do I need?

  • Determine the number of product demos one person can make in an hour
  • Multiply that by the number of hours of the Show (e.g., 12 hours)
  • Multiply the results by the number of sales staff in the booth
  • Review the final numbers with your staff
