Open doors fair was one of the most challenging fairs in the cycle. It was the first fair when the companies presented themselves. The main aim of that fair in my opinion was to tell loudly and remarkably to the world "yes, we do exist". The preparation for that fair took more time than the preparation for the other fairs in my opinion. So, start to prepare beforehand with the team. The most important aspects of that preparation were.

1) Creating an action plan: who does what and when.

The action plan really helps to figure out the concrete tasks of each and every member of the team!

2) Taking the product from a partner company

Remember, that you will need the products till the end of December

3) Making some catchy stand decoration

Create some big posters for the fair, add colorful airballoons, roll-ups

4) Know your product well enough and create fair pricing

Remember, that your potential clients may ask a lot of information from you

5) Try to entertain your clients

Add some music to your stand, buy some sweets or prepare drinks for your clients, have some games

6) Marketing materials make it perfect!

Prepare some brochures and contact cards as it is done in real businesses, but give them only to the clients that are really interested.

Open Doors Fair will be full of people, prepare to work with the crowd!
