PAUL AND JACKIE LAWSON OF ESK CARAVAN PARK ARE REGULARS AT SOMERSET TOURISM TRADE SHOW STANDS, HERE’S WHY:
We love attending trade show stands with the Somerset tourism team. We find it’s a great opportunity to meet new prospective customers and to share information about our business and what we have to offer.
We have people coming in all the time saying, “I met you at the tradeshow and you had us sold, we’ve come in to check you out”.
Attending these trade shows has increased our customer base and return customers. We have converted people who would only free camp in the past. They come in, try us out and keep coming back. They even bring their friends.
