NAB and Freeman made a new tool available to exhibitors this year. I just loaded it and it’s pretty handy. Exhibits Manager, is a tool to help you keep your 2009 NAB exhibit planning on track. Once installed on your computer (sorry mac people it’s PC only right now), it will provide pop-up alerts for upcoming critical deadlines, expiration of discount periods, and key reminders to help you get ready for the show. To login use your Customer ID and VIP Code once downloaded. No spam! Just time-sequenced messages for our exhibitor’s needs. I have to say it’s pretty slick. For more information or to download the software click HERE.

EXHIBITS MANAGER: Cool new software app to help you keep on top of NAB 09 planning.
February 9, 2009Read the Show Manual, I Promise – It Will Help.
October 22, 2008Yes I know when you first see the manual it can be daunting, but it is there to help you. 95% of the answers you need are buried in that binder (or CD, on-line PDF’s) of information.
A main document that is your friend is the deadlines page. All the deadlines for forms, orders, and shipping are listed in one place. When I first started doing this it was invaluable, and it still is today.
There’s other handy things like shipping label templates & maps, but most important, are labor rules for the show. I have found that labor rules change from show to show and are not consistent. This document demystifies and explicitly outlines what exhibitors can and cannot do on the show floor when loading in or dismantling the booths. Reading this can save a lot of grief once you are on the show floor.
