[Replay] Turn Trade Show Season into Your Growth Season | Episode 105
Mon Jan 19 2026
Trade show season is here. And whether you’re there showing your brand, walking the show floor to buy for your store, or watching from your phone dreaming of getting there, this episode will help you make the most of it.
Originally aired in February 2024, this conversation got such great feedback that I had to bring it back. The strategies are still just as relevant because they go beyond trends and into what actually drives retail growth this time of year.
In this episode, I’m diving into:
How to follow up with buyers after a trade show (and the #1 mistake most brands make)Creative ways to stay on buyers’ radars - even if you’re not at the showA simple way for buyers to maximize their open-to-buy budget and avoid overbuyingHow to use trade show season as an opportunity for connection—not just transactions
Whether you're a product-based brand or a buyer, you're going to leave this one with fresh ideas and smart strategies to make this season work for you.
