We had 26 companies visiting our stand which resulted in 7 follow-up appointments or requests for quotations. We also found out about potential funding opportunities and other business support advice.”
“However, perhaps one of the key outputs from networking came through meeting representatives from RTC North. After chatting with them at Oktoberfest, we joined Design Network North and started to attend their meetings. As a result we were recommended as preferred suppliers to a business looking for our expertise. This became a good contact for us.”
“Undoubtedly, ‘meet the buyer’ is a real bonus to any company attending. We made a number of appointments; being allocated a one to one slot with companies you may have been targeting for sometime as well as making new contacts was hugely beneficial.
Shortly after the event we received two requests for quotations, one of which resulted in us winning a new customer who will be placing an order for new tools for new products with us over the course of the next few months.”
“If I was to give anyone thinking about attending any advice it would be to book your stand, set clear targets on what you want to achieve and network, network, network. The contacts are there – and if you don’t take advantage, your competitors will.”
