Exhibitors

Excellent theme and the show was organized well. The food provided was also excellent. The Internet café will be a must for all shows. The bCard scan devices were excellent. We were able to type in notes on the spot and leave knowing the leads were well managed.
Barbara Williams
DTR Software

We made some sales right on the show floor and got a ton of solid leads. $2500 wasn't a big investment for all the leads we got.

Colvin Communications/representing Insol/Ichikoh and Masterduct

I think you have done a very good job. The setting was very nice and I got some good leads.

The friendliness of your personnel as well as their desire to help were great. The decoration and theme were great, too.

I've been in and at a lot of trade shows and this has been the most fun. By far!

I really think the idea of a theme carried like this throughout the whole facility is very unique and very effective. And exhibitors have never been treated so well!

Surf City helps us keep in contact with e-mail back in the office. That's a service we haven't seen in any other trade show. You've been very accommodating to exhibitors and I made some good contacts. You've done everything right!

Omnexus was excited about the first Plastics Encounter show. We met a large number of potential customers, but more important than the quantity was the quality of the people we met. Most of the individuals at the show were decision-makers. In fact, we talked to more presidents and vice presidents in the past three days than the last three months. Plastics Encounter was a great investment for Omnexus and we look forward to the Cleveland show in June.
Doug Bray
Director of Sales
Omnexus

The show set-up was the smoothest I have ever encountered. The booth crate was waiting for us when we got there, and was delivered quickly after the show. An additional table we needed was delivered in minutes. The preshow party was a good opportunity to meet the Plastics News staff as well as other exhibitors, as was the evening cocktail hours. The evening cocktail party was a nice ending to each day. The overall atmosphere was great, and you and the staff were very helpful. The wave runners were a great idea as well, and Surf City booth was an absolute necessity.
