In fact this is busy season for most agents with up coming shows etc. I am thinking they will be guest posting in March. Cross your fingers and toes!

My guess is there are fewer people in July - it will be HOT outside :-) I am thinking I will go in July - I will know when the time gets closer.

Then again, I didn't see much, only about half of Building 2. Thanks for the list idea - that is smart!

It sounds like your agents are terrific, and that hopefully you've made some excellent connections. So good that they took you along on some of the meetings etc. This way they know you much better and you know the way they work. Awesome. Are both shows the same? The one in January and the one in July? :) Thanks again for sharing... Love your Uber version of your VW..:) WTG...

It's a really overwhelming show. I make a list and try to stick to it- but there are a lot of distractions. I like to ask salespeople about best sellers- and what they feel might be missing. <br />I noticed a lot of acorns, pinecones, mini garden scenes, charms, treasure boxes….and also decor items that appeared to be vintage and up-cycled- but are being mass produced- shelves, lighting, coat racks, small furniture.<br />Hope some of my connections lead to licenses, I'll keep you posted!<br />Rose Mary Berlinhttp://www.rosemaryberlin.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-107407447262846085.post-46358760495053922402016-01-29T16:55:17.193-06:002016-01-29T16:55:17.193-06:00So glad you had a good time.

I used to go to the January show every year, and one year I had about 10 appointments with company principals, some of them back to back. I really ran through the slow-moving crowds in the aisles to either the elevators or the escalators to get to the next appointment, all appointments were very encouraging, but when all was said and done, nothing ever went to license and zero money resulted from all that work and expense flying down from Boston.<br /><br />Yes, it was good to meet people face to face, and yes it was great to see their lines, and later to make my way from showroom to showroom, seeing what was on the market and meeting companies I hadn't known, but as polite and seemingly-interested everyone was, their attention was really on (a) who might be coming into the showroom to buy something or become a new client, (b) getting ready for the next meeting, and/or (c) getting through the day. And probably wondering why they were spending time with an art licensing agent when they should be out walking the showroom floor...<br /><br />One of these days, though, I'm going up there again, spending more time, hitting all the halls and connecting with new potential licensees.Lance Klasshttp://www.porterfieldsfineart.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-107407447262846085.post-38147289558128715262016-01-29T14:19:30.371-06:002016-01-29T14:19:30.371-06:00Howdy Leah!
