Exhibitor Great Rewards
TLPA gives you all the tools you need for maximum impact. Click here for the Great Rewards each and every exhibitor receives as a benefit of exhibiting.
Space is Assigned According to a Priority System — This is How it Works
All current Associate Members and last year's exhibitors qualify to participate in the priority system. Exhibit contracts will be assigned giving preference for selection of exhibit space according to: 1) the amount of display space ordered in 2007, 2) show event sponsors in 2007, 3) TLPA membership status in 2007 and TLPA accounts being current, 4) Trade Show participation in 2006, and 5) the date the signed contract and full payment is received.
All Associate Members, show sponsors and last year's exhibitors must have their signed contract and payment to the TLPA office by April 16 to be included in the priority assignments. After April 16 any company can apply for a display space on a first come, first served basis. |
Sponsorships — Your Relationship Building Vehicles
Vendors that sponsored events or items last year will be given the first opportunity to sponsor the same event or item this year. Advanced sponsorships must be received by April 9; after April 9 sponsorships will be assigned on a first come, first served basis. Only event sponsors will receive enhanced name and logo recognition in the conference program and on TLPA's website. Click here for more information on sponsorships and a sponsorship commitment form.
