Pressing the flesh at trade shows

I was at EyeforTravel.com’s Travel Distribution Summit this week at the Business Design Centre in Islington. I noticed a new type of exhibitor there that I fear will hit us from behind: masseuses. The biggest stand by far belonged to some massage company. At Internet World last month there must have been half-a-dozen stalls that offered a rub down. Trade shows can be a pain in the neck - perhaps this is just the market responding to that demand.

    I was there on Wednesday afternoon. I thought it was pretty quiet, but I was only exhibiting so I couldn’t tell you what the seminars were like.

    The Business Design Centre doesn’t have aircon, so it was a bit steamy. God knows what it will be like when the Online Marketing Show is there in June!
