What if I said I had a business opportunity for you that washed its own face? If you had a good command of English, you would know exactly what I meant, I’m sure. You would understand that this business opportunity would pay for itself. That it was a risk-free investment. A no-brainer.
But what if your English did not stretch that far? How would I explain it to you with an equally colourful metaphor (because, why not?) but in a way that you would understand it? Well, according to ChatGPT, so forgive me in advance, if you were French I’d tell you that this business opportunity stirs its own pot or possibly that it feeds itself with its own spoon. In Germany they like to say that it turns its own cogs. In Spain, I kid you not, the metaphor is that it runs its own bull through the street.
This opportunity would also stand on its own two feet, cover the price of admission, pay its own dues, ride its own wave and, a personal favourite of mine whether widely used or not, pull the pint and pay for it too.
Is the message getting through? It’s this. I have something for you that absolutely pays for itself. In fact, more than pays for itself. No matter where you are in the world. And I can prove it.
We have set a new date and location in 2025 for the next Angling International LIVE trade show. It will be in Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, between June 26th and 28th. If you are seeking business leads without risk, I promise you that your decision to join us will, as they like to say in Slovakia, return to its own pocket.
How do I know that exhibiting at Angling International LIVE is as close to a risk-free investment as you can get? Because of the hugely positive feedback from our 2024 exhibitors. Seriously. There are tackle suppliers around the world right now, some of them your friends, some of them your competitors, that are rubbing their hands at the prospect of the business that will be coming their way in the next year, and all because they turned up on our show floor in September.
Take, for example, the supplier from northern Europe that emailed me three weeks after Angling International LIVE to say that he had doubled the value of his business thanks to a single meeting at the show. Doubled it. “I am not exaggerating,” he wrote.
Another exhibitor, from the same country, took me aside on day one in Budapest to tell me that he had secured enough business in the first two hours to cover the cost of his booth, his travel and his marketing for the show. From lunchtime on that first day, every meeting that converted into business would be cream on the cake.
A first-time exhibitor from Scandinavia came in search of three or four high quality leads to take his business into new parts of Europe. Instead he gathered close to 20 leads inside two days and is now rethinking just how big his brand can grow outside his domestic market.
I also know of a small business from southern Europe whose owner and team drove for 15 hours to be on the show floor. I worried for them for the long journey home, but instead they sent me a message of them smiling and singing in their van as they celebrated 18 solid business leads plus a handful of awards. Mission accomplished. Face washed.
The list goes on, and includes tackle suppliers from Japan, India, China, Egypt and all parts of Europe. They are re-booking for Bratislava in June because they believe in the promise we are making to all exhibitors at Angling International LIVE. We will deliver you more business leads at a lower cost than any comparable trade show.
Bratislava is a low-cost option in terms of hotels and getting about. We are also offering free promotions in Angling International to help your budget stretch further and to make the best possible connections more likely on the show floor.
More business leads for less cost. We mean it. You really should take up the opportunity. It is a no-brainer.
