We're heading to IMEX America next week. Perhaps you are, too?
For anyone even thinking of making the trip, I thought I would share some of our top tips for making the most of the meetings industry's largest show.
The show is intense, and it can be overwhelming, especially for first-timers.
The Skift Meetings Innovation Lab is the best way to start your IMEX experience. This planner-only event on Monday, October 7 (2:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.) brimming with intentional networking and peer-to-peer discussions on key industry topics.
To get you started, here are eight tips to help you prepare for the show.
Check what's on (explore the many sessions and events to choose from)
Book meetings in advance (if it's not on your calendar, it won't happen)
Explore the show floor (get to know the floor plan)
Try to book adjacent meetings (avoid walking miles in between meetings)
Don't overfill your schedule (no matter how tempted you are, don't do it)
Start networking before you travel (connect online before you meet in person)
Bring your business cards (physical, digital or keep that LinkedIn QR code handy)
Clear your calendar (if you're going to be present, be present)
I hope these tips help you get ready.
