This is the Amputee Coalition's 25th Anniversary, and your chance to be a part of history. Help us celebrate and do your part to acknowledge or congratulate the limb loss community through signage, premiums and advertisements.
The Amputee Coalition's 2011 National Conference is the place to be for professionals involved in caring for and selling products to the limb loss community. The conference promises record-breaking attendance and will feature new product launches and educational sessions requested by amputees and their families from around the country.
Amputees and their families look forward to and attend the Amputee Coalition National Conference more than any other limb loss community event. The National Conference is the premier meeting event for the limb loss community, with proven programs in recovery, readjustment and resilience. The Amputee Coalition's National Conference brings your consumer directly to you. You'll have access to a large number of amputees with the potential to create buzz about your products and services. What this means to you: Your customers, in one place, at one time, participating in the biggest limb loss community forum of the year – making the conference an event you cannot miss.
With over 900 attendees at the Amputee Coalition's National Conference, we offer you the first opportunity to connect with the largest targeted audience of amputees in America. Following are some of the benefits you gain by participating in this premier event.
1. More bang for your buck.
Exhibits are one of the most cost-effective ways for your company to reach the amputee customer audience. Maximize your time and marketing dollars through face-to-face opportunities. Plus, your company will be listed in the Virtual Exhibit Hall on the Amputee Coalition Web site all year.
2. Connect with the impact of your work.
Start seeing your customers. If you haven’t had the chance to talk with amputees who benefit from your products or services, this is a great time to connect. It’s not only good for your business, it’s food for the soul..
3. Fresh faces.
Every year, increasing numbers of new amputees attend the Amputee Coalition National Conference. In 2010, more than 250 attendees were first-timers. You have a huge opportunity to educate them about your product or services..
4. Competitive edge.
The Amputee Coalition National Conference offers your company another opportunity to stand out from the crowd. You can outshine the competition with well-trained booth staff, aggressive pre- and at-show promotion, eye-catching booth design, and conscientious follow-up after the show. Furthermore, attendees use the opportunity to "comparison shop." This is your opening to point out where your product is superior – in performance, service and more.
5. "Face time."
Meeting amputees face-to-face is the fastest and most effective way to build relationships and build your brand.
6. Customer bonding.
Customer service is a hot topic for many companies. The Amputee Coalition National Conference is an excellent place to reinforce existing customer relationships. Say "thanks" to your customers with give-aways, hospitality suites, tech sessions, or event sponsorships.
7. Hands-on learning.
How much of your product line can your salespeople actually demonstrate to a large number of amputees? Probably not much. The Amputee Coalition National Conference is a great place for consumers to see and touch your products.
8. Competitive analysis.
The exhibit show floor provides an invaluable opportunity to study the competition. Where else can you find information on a competitor's new product offerings, pricing and marketing strategies? Much can be learned by just watching and listening.
9. Media spotlight.
Work with the Amputee Coalition’s public relations staff to learn about media attendance and ask how to use this to your advantage to gain media exposure by inviting key press contacts to visit your booth.
10. "Survey says-"
Exhibit shows offer a great opportunity to conduct market research. If you're considering launching a new product or service, you can survey conference attendees on features and benefits, minimum quality requirements and more.
