Trade shows & exhibitions

Your stand cost a fortune. Staff it properly.

Stand hosts, demonstrators and lead-capture crews for exhibitions across the UK — from the NEC and ExCeL to the halls nobody outside your sector has heard of.

The problem
Empty stands lose money
The cause
Untrained temporary staff
The fix
A crew briefed in advance
The result
Conversations, not footfall
What our show crews do

Four jobs on a stand. We staff all of them.

Most exhibitors under-staff the front of the stand and over-staff the back. We will tell you honestly what mix your floor plan needs.

Stand hosts

Open conversations, qualify visitors and keep the stand busy instead of waiting for people to walk on.

The default hire

Product demonstrators

Run the demo the same way at 9am and at 5pm on day three. Trained on your product before the show.

Technical stands

Lead capture

Scanners and forms handled properly, so what lands in your CRM on Monday is actually usable.

Data-led stands

Stand hospitality

Coffee, bar service and hosting for stands that entertain buyers rather than pitch to them.

Premium stands
Show week

We work to the show schedule, not office hours.

Build-up

Before the doors

Crew briefed off-site or on the stand during build. Uniforms checked, scanners tested, pitch rehearsed.

Day one

Busiest day

Full crew on the front edge of the stand. Team lead adjusts positions once we see how the aisle flows.

Mid-show

Hold the energy

Rotation and breaks managed so the stand never drops to one tired host at 3pm.

Breakdown

After the last visitor

Leads reconciled and handed over, then a written wrap-up on what worked.

Halls we know

We have worked the floors, not just read the floor plan.

Our crews have staffed shows including Vaper Expo, the National Convenience Show and Crufts, plus the outdoor circuit at Goodwood, Silverstone and Cholmondeley.

Venue list to be confirmed with the client before launch.

Questions

Trade show staffing, answered.

As a rule of thumb, one host per three to four metres of open stand frontage, plus demonstrators for any hands-on product. Send us the floor plan and we will give you a number and the reasoning behind it.

They will if you brief us. We send your material to the crew in advance and, for technical products, arrange a session with your team during build-up.

Yes, and it is the single biggest improvement most exhibitors can make. Once a crew knows your product they stop being temporary staff and start being your show team.

Yes. We use whatever system the organiser provides or your own CRM forms, and the team lead reconciles the day’s leads before the crew leaves site.

Rotation and breaks are the team lead’s job, planned so the front of the stand is never left thin. That is included, not an extra.
