Game Themed Business Expos

In March 2019, Net XP held the East Sussex Marketing Expo at the East Sussex National near Uckfield. With some snow on the ground, us Brits soldiered on to make sure the weather was nothing more than a conversation for small talk.

The main talking point was the event with staggering success, on ‘Par’ with other expos we’ve hosted previously with the Golf theme.

Imagine a future where you can be immersed in a room from the comfort of your own home. Imagine a future where you can visit an exhibition again to remind yourself of the name of a distinct stand. Imagine if this technology wasn’t far off in the future as you thought, but at your fingertips right now…

Networking is undoubtedly one of the most divisive activities in business. Some people relish the opportunity to jump into a busy room and engage with others, while some find networking daunting and difficult. Whatever your position is, networking is without question one of the most successful ways to grow your business and serves as an opportunity to market your company, with you as its public face. Therefore, how you interact with others will affect how they view your business as a whole.

Business networking can be important to a successful sales and marketing programme, especially for B2B enterprises that work with relatively few high-value clients. Yet the prospect of attending a networking event can conjure up feelings of apprehension, stress and even resentment. Event organisers need to change the game and inspiration could come from a psychology-based trend making waves across the business world called gamification.

Today’s advances in technology are incredible, aren’t they? It’s never been easier to get in touch with someone across the globe, and the internet means that we can now achieve many of our daily tasks from the comfort of our armchairs and offices. 

The experience of being a customer has changed beyond recognition in recent years. Self-service systems, automated messages and AI are taking over the front line of customer interaction in the search for ever-greater efficiency.

We’re bringing the principles of gamification to the B2B trade show for the first time. Every one of our events is themed around a popular, universal game, to break the ice, to get people talking quicker, and to encourage every delegate to bring their real self to our events. Because the real you is more authentic and more likely to close a sale.

Let’s face it — many online businesses and services drop out of the competition against big brands because of their company’s reputation. When it comes to product sales, generating leads and attracting customers to their website, big brands outnumber small businesses in many ways. Yet

As someone who understands the power of exhibiting at tradeshows, I am keen to help others make the most of these opportunities. Innovation is always well-received at exhibitions, and the last thing that anybody wants when they’re showcasing their business is to blend in, or worse: be singled out as having a lack-lustre stand. But there are a number of creative touches you can make to ensure that you stand out for the right reasons, without breaking the bank.
