Moda AW20 might feel like a lifetime ago, but it’s important to remember the show’s not over yet. For established names and emerging brands alike, post-show activity is just as, if not more, important than the exhibiting itself. That’s why we’ve broken it down into some bitesize tips and tricks to help you see real success and proven ROI from your time at Moda AW20. 

 

Keep in touch with valuable contacts

The number one reason you’ll have likely chosen to exhibit with us is the opportunity to make valuable and lasting connections. But, like any good relationship, a successful business connection all boils down to consistent and clear communication. Make sure you continue to nurture your new network, even after the show, to ensure that your new relationships go from hot leads to fully-fledged customers. Make a point of adding all your connections’ contact details into your own database (bearing in mind GDPR and the necessary consents!) and keep in touch with them with personalised messaging about the products or collections they showed an interest in on-site, or simply with more information on your brand. It’s never a bad idea to follow their business social media accounts, as well, to ensure that you’re touching all bases when it comes to staying connected.

 

Consolidate results with your pre-show goals

If you followed our How To guide on exhibiting at Moda, you’ll know that having a tangible goal for show success is crucial. Now is the time to be revisiting those goals, to see if you achieved what you set out to. Quantifying the number of orders written or number of meetings held, for example will help you to understand what worked at the show and what you may need to think about for next season.

 

Claim your stand for next season

As our long standing brands will tell you, consistency is key when it comes to trade shows. Regularly appearing at key trade shows in the buying calendar, like Moda, will help you boost your brand awareness and make long-lasting connections that will stand the test of time. If you haven’t already, now is the time to get in touch with your Moda account manager to let them know how the show went and if you achieved your goals.
