Pulverize - Booth Staffing

This episode of the Pulverize series covers where the rubber really meets the road at a face-to-face marketing event: your booth staff. Without a capable and coordinated staff to execute your plans in the booth, all the planning and strategy you've done to plan the event will be for naught. Pulvermedia's VP and GM of Events Bill Sell speaks with CMO Glenn Gaudet about the three types of people he recommends you have in the booth:
- Salespeople
- Technical People, Engineers
- "Random" Booth Staffers
Of course, Bill has a large number of suggestions to help each kind of staffer be more effective on the floor. Listen in to learn how to maximize your ROI on booth and staff expenditures.
