Pre-show promotion is critical to driving traffic to your booth. Here’s an example of the key elements that AMF Bakery Systems nailed in this email promotion for Interpack, May 4-10 in Dusseldorf, Germany:

1. Messaging: Invite customers and prospects to see the company and team at the show. 

2. Timing: Send the email promotion about two weeks before the show, when attendees are setting their show schedules.

3. The details: Include the show dates, location and your booth number. Download a banner or graphic from the event organizer, if available.

4. Comp tickets: Take advantage of free expo hall passes, if offered by the event organizer. Include a link to claim the ticket.

5. Personalization: Include names and photos of the team who will be at the show. 

6. Connect: Include links to connect with the team on LinkedIn 

7. Call to action: Make it easy for customers and prospects to set appointments.

8. Get social: Don’t forget to include social channels
