NACDS Total Store Expo has been one of the most important events that we participate in each year. The combination of meetings with retailers at Meet the Market and on the trade show floor has yielded us deeper relationships and increased business. We have successfully closed deals each year that started with first interactions at TSE.

Just a few months after Total Store Expo, we have already received orders from a few of the companies that we met at Total Store Expo. Just make sure to put in the time required to send personalized emails to each of the companies you wish to meet, as preparation is key to a successful show.
