I recently attended and exhibited in trade shows located in Las Vegas (3), Anaheim, and Louisville. As the National Sales Manager for a major die casting company and also the Manager for Trade Show planning, I use your information continually throughout the year. Normally I attend and/or exhibit at 15 to 20 shows a year. Again, the information you publication provides is extremely valuable.
