Vegas Fastener Show Approaching

It is now late August but already I am starting to think about the Las Vegas Fastener Show in November. It will be here before you know it. New venue, more vendors than ever. Should be great. I went to the Midwest show in Chicago in June. I visited a few suppliers which made it a good trip. A lot of suppliers complained that it was not that active. Here is the scoop. All the little regional shows (and the Eastern Fastener Show for that matter) are not good because enough distributors do not show up at them. There is no one to sell to. If a supplier is paying a bunch of money for a booth they certainly want people walking by who might purchase from them or at least call for a quote. The most successful shows and organizations are the ones who can attract the customers!! The vendors will follow them and support any show or group where they can see their customers.
