Meet the Industry’s Key Decision-Makers—and Your Best Customers

POWERING YOUR SALES
EXPO 2007 ensures that your products and services remain top-of-mind with decision-makers. When you reserve your exhibit space, here’s what you’ll receive:
BOOTH SET-UP
- 8’ high background drape
- 3’ high side rail drapes
- Exhibitor identification sign
GUEST PASSES FOR CLIENT VISITORS
Make a direct invitation to clients to visit your company’s booth. This is a great one-on-one marketing tool. (These passes are intended for existing or potential clients only and may not be used by exhibiting company personnel. EEI retains the right to refuse admission to unqualified invitees.)
MAILING LISTS
Promote your presence at EXPO 2007 with pre- and post-show attendee lists via e-mail. You get attendee name, title, company name and address to help you in your promotional efforts both before and after the show.
LISTING IN THE EXHIBITOR DIRECTORY
It’s the key reference book for attendees. Your company name, marketing contact, telephone number, product description, booth number and company web site address are in the Directory, showing attendees how to get to your booth—and keeping information on your products and services at their fingertips when they get home.
HOTLINK TO YOUR WEB SITE
Steer prospects directly to your company’s wares with a link on EEI’s Convention web site.
COMPLIMENTARY REGISTRATION BADGES
For each 10’ x 10’ booth rental, exhibiting companies receive two complimentary badges for exhibitor personnel—a $2,900 value—to staff their booths. With these badges, you can attend all the EXPO events plus the General Sessions, Critical Issues Forums, and the Grand Event. Complimentary badges are contingent on reserving hotel rooms under the official EEI block at the headquarters hotel. Additional exhibitor personnel badges may be purchased at the reduced member company registration fee. A $300 surcharge will apply to every badge if staying outside the official EEI hotel room block.
Increase your impact dramatically with a larger space. You’ll have more room for product displays and one-on-one meetings. Each booth you occupy entitles your company to have two more people attend the Convention. A limited number of island spaces—with aisle exposure on all four sides—are available. We’ll also be glad to discuss any combination of booth spaces that may meet your needs.
