Commenting on the MD&M opportunity, Robert Goldberg, president of StartupFactory, LLC notes: “Astute
marketers go to great lengths to fine tune advertising, web development and direct marketing programs. And yet, when
it comes to trade shows, many exhibitors merely set up their booth and hope that the prospects they seek wil appear at
their exhibit as if by magic. A wel -planned, integrated trade show effort can transform a conference of this nature into
a dynamic marketing opportunity with a significant return on investment, and this is our goal for VARTA. The effort
includes a new tradeshow exhibit, messaging, press releases, media tour, html invitation and pre/post show mailings.
