We
always know that chaos works in an orderly manner. However, it is not that simple, it is up to us in finding
that order. It is up to us in creating the order. It is up to us in accepting
the order that we created. It is up to us in achieving a productive result in the
order.
Lastly,
we cannot create an organized chaos if we are too emotional about it. Organized
chaos is based on intelligent and scientific approach.
Event
Management is chaos. It is up to us how to make it as an organized chaos.

It is easy to create a concept or an idea. It is so easy but
success is no guarantee. The best way to do it is to create a concept the
market already wants or need or if the idea is there but there is
dissatisfaction in the market create a better product or service.
In the expo, trade fairs and events the same rule applies. The same simple but hard to follow rule.

Today I took my lunch at Tokyo Tokyo and found this paste in my table. A mobile app for loyalty program that Tokyo Tokyo is using.
No doubt loyalty and rewards program is gaining a big space as a tool for retailers in gaining the love of their customers.
The app is called Jive and is now part of my smartphone app.

Technology
changed the game in the way we promote and market our products. This change
spilled in the tradeshow floor.
Here are the
marketing collaterals that you must have in promoting your products and services
in exhibition.
1.
QR
Code
Save the
paper, Quick Response Code (QR Code) is the best way to transfer your
information to potential buyers in an instant. Although QR code in the country
is highly dependent on the strength of internet connection. Still, it save
paper and give buyers comfort by doing away in carrying heavy brochures.
2. Augmented Reality
Attraction is the name of the game and augmented reality ranks one of the highest in creating magnet to visitors walking around the show area.
3.
Near
Field Technology
This
technology allows you to invite people near your area and offer them anything
valuable that will lure them in your booth.
4.
Loyalty
and Rewards Card
Who does not
love rewards? This is one tool that you can miss in order to get visitors and
buyers running towards your booth.
5.
LED
Interactive Screen
The
gamification of promoting your products and services is a must. One way is to
have an interactive game using LED screen. I was witness to one event where the
use of XBOX connected to LED where people are allowed to try Dance Revolution
made a great business gimmick in the show area.
