There can be a lot to absorb when you’re at The Franchise Show from seminar sessions you attend, people you meet, and tips and tricks you receive. It is advised to take notes where you can so that after each of the busy days you can look back over what you’ve found and allow time for reflection.
Make your own agenda
We suggest you pull together a to-do list complete with the talks you want to attend and exhibitors you want to meet as well as the times to catch them. This means that you can personally choose which aspects of the show will be most useful to you and make sure that you don’t miss out on them.
Work on your elevator pitch
When meeting people and making new business connections you will have to have information or a pitch readily available. You’ll want to be able to market yourself efficiently to individuals you meet, you never know when an exciting opportunity could be just around the corner.
