How to get trade show discounts without buying a plane ticket

Our Partner Network brings trade show discounts to you.

 

Hi y’all,

Trade show season is here. The MATRA Tent Show starts in Atlantic City today, and IAAPA and Wedding MBA follow later this month (come say hi to the Goodshuffle team at all 3 events!). Suppliers bring big price breaks to the big industry trade shows.

But flights, a hotel, a show pass, and three days away from the warehouse add up fast. Not every business can afford that, especially a growing one.

So, Goodshuffle has been working with some of the industry’s finest to bring discounts to you all year round. We built a Partner Network full of exclusive price breaks for Goodshuffle Pro subscribers. I get into it here:

 

Here’s what I’d keep in mind:

Suppliers give their best prices to their biggest buyers. Every chair, linen and tent comes out of your margin, and so does the help you hire, like your web designer or your accountant. One shop ordering on its own usually pays full price. A big group of shops asking together can get a better price.

Let someone else ask for the discount. We built the Partner Network to do that asking for you. It’s a set of deals we negotiated with tent and furniture suppliers, marketing agencies, finance pros and more, just for Goodshuffle Pro customers. We went to them with a lot of buying power behind us and negotiated exclusive discounts for you. If we can help you save a buck or two, I know that means a lot as your business grows.

So what are you still buying on your own that the Partner Network could get you for less?

See you next Monday,
