2 MESSAGE FROM THE SHOW DIRECTOR
Sponsorships are your company’s exclusive opportunity
to partner with The SMART Jewelry Show. They help
ensure the success of your trade show investment by en-
hancing your company’s image, driving sales, increasing
yourvisibilitythroughpositivepublicity,differentiatingyou
from your competitors and enhancing your relationships
with prospective (and current) customers. The SMART
Show offers a variety of sponsorship options, and each has
been developed to help you connect with retail jewelers
andnurturethebrandrelationshipwithTheSMARTShow.
Together,ourcompaniesofferretailersthesolutions,infor-
mationandproductstheyneedtobecomemoresuccessful.
Sponsorships are limited, but that’s not the only reason
to act quickly. Because they’re integrated into events and
conference sessions that we’ve already begun promoting,
the sooner you sign up, the more exposure you’ll receive.
Not only will your brand be visible to over 2,500 retailer
attendees who visit The SMART Show, but your logo
will also be seen by everyone who visits our website and
receivesourshowe-newsbulletins.Exhibitorswhosigned
up in October will potentially be seen over 60,000 times
before the show even starts. Make sure that your trade
show investments pay off by including sponsorships in
your marketing plans.
We look forward to seeing you in Chicago at Navy Pier
this April. If we can assist you in any way, please don’t
hesitate to contact your INSTORE and INDESIGN sales
representative.
