Why exhibit at the Specialist Media Show?
Specialist media owners are increasingly having to outsource key functions, as the media landscape becomes more complex. They need to consider new suppliers in web design, digital marketing, digital archiving, ad networks, mobile, as well as ensuring they are making the right choices for print, paper, production, retail distribution, subs fulfilment, legal, and training services.
Our exhibiting packages can help you:
- Build awareness of your products and services with decision-makers in specialist media businesses (Pre-show promotion, demonstrations, samples, case studies)
- Establish your expertise in key topics through workshops
- Deepen relationships with key media owners through conference networking
- Generate qualified leads through stand and expert 1-1 consultations
- Gain insight into the issues and challenges facing specialist media owners
The Specialist Media Show will create an environment where suppliers can communicate their products and services to both senior decision-makers and specialists and influencers in specialist media businesses.
Whatever your business objectives: awareness building, lead generation or communicating a specific message, we can construct a package to help you achieve them.
We can help you target key audiences: senior directors and decision-makers, and specialists who influence key buying decisions: editorial, creative and design; advertising and commercial; marketers; event organisers and production managers.
