This month's feature: PRI 2005 Review
2005 PRI SHOW HIGHLIGHTS
The anticipation for the 18th Annual Performance Racing Industry Trade Show was two-fold this year. Not only for the numerous new products and technological innovations that would be exhibited, but it was also the first year that the show would at the Orlando Convention Center in Florida, wherein for the first time, all 1,400 companies exhibiting in nearly 4,000 booths covering around 800,000 square feet would all be under one room on same floor.
As it turned out, it was the most successful PRI Show to date with record numbers of both exhibitors and buyers in attendance, with a marked increase in international attendees.
We also saw an impressive number of attendees to our seminar, A Guide to Internet Marketing. The room was packed within a matter of minutes as speakers Tom Moore, Gigi Ho and guest speaker Nolan Jamora of Isky Racing Cams covered topics from how to optimize your web site and web pages to how having an easy to navigate and informational website can and has added to a company's bottom line.
And speaking with many of our customers and getting their reaction and level of business at the new venue, we heard the same thing consistently... more so than the foot traffic they all received was the quality of the buyers to their booths. Many cited that they did more business at this year's PRI Show than they have done at any of the other trade shows attended.
With an impressive display of products such as the following, what else would one expect!
