Have you ever been to a business show?

We've been invited and given a stand.
Now I don't really know what to expect.
I know what my company is offering but these are corporate companies and my boss said she doesn't want to do corporate events.
But perhaps headshots and team ones for LinkedIn!
I feel like a lemon whenever I go to these things, we do have booklets or any kind of price listings so I'm just talking abd redirecting people to her.

I have attended and represented my companies at many business "conventions/shows" in the past. However, now that we sell everything we touch...I don't feel the need to go unless they are a relatively short (5-6 hour) trip away.

Make sure you have loads of business cards and brochures available (if applicable) and MAKE SURE YOU are up to date with ALL the products and services your company offers. If you cannot answer a question.... do not "wing it". Just say that you will need to get back to them with an answer to that and get their contact information.

@Threepio thank you...
She's always winging it. And that's why I don't like working with her.
I will be handing in my notice on Monday because she's already given the warning that she has used up all her reserves and may not be able to pay us.
