Getting
the most out of exhibitions
Almost
any business faces the challenge of making most of a trade fair opportunity and
being perceived as a credible partner in the (international) market place.
The
seminar focuses on both the larger framework and the most practical aspects of
your business communication processes. It will prove a crucial workout towards
your 'Business Communication Toolkit'.
This toolkit is a low-cost, multimedia and Customer Relationship
Management, project management approach that can transform, in as little as 2
weeks, the way the global market perceives your business and is instrumental in
your dealings with investors, banks, distributors, business partners, funding
organisations and of course your clients and prospects. The session will also include a hands-on
practical session that will help provide a very useful real life
simulation.
The
seminar's content can be used directly in your daily communications and in
preparing for ES Connectivity 05.
