The challenge

Standing out from all the other exhibitors.

At a busy trade show, dozens of exhibitors are competing for the attention of the same visitors. How do you make sure potential customers come to your stand, and actually stop for a conversation?

What happened

A card with a reason to drop by.

Before the show, 375 contacts received a pen-written A6 postcard. Anyone who handed the card in at the stand got a free tin of stroopwafels.

We’re happy to talk you through what the card looked like and what it said on a call.

The results

75 cards came back.

Of the 375 cards, 75 were handed in at the stand: one in five recipients dropped by.
