Exhibits build temporary bridge
Article Abstract:
The Direct Marketing Assn (DMA) and Motivation Show held their exhibition simultaneously at the McCormick Place in Chicago, IL, in Oct 1997. It was the second time that Motivation Show producer Hall-Erickson has done it while it was the first time for DMA. The main reason which prompted the simultaneous exhibitions included potential marketing and sales synergies among prospective clients. DMA opened its exhibit floor to all attendees including Motivation Show audiences on its final exhibit day while Motivation Show adjusted its schedule to coincide with DMA's schedule.

Freeman rolls out aid to exhibitors: kiosks answer routine questions, allow order placement
Article Abstract:
Trade show general service contractor Freeman Cos is in the process of concluding a 12-month pilot program on a system that might facilitate exhibitors' moving in and out of trade floor shows. The system involves interactive touchscreen computer kiosks that will allow exhibitors to conduct approximately 95% of their business. The display booths will provide standard show schedule information, current status information on orders/inbound freight, and allow new-order placements, close-out invoicing, printing of shipping labels and e-mail contacting of contractors.
