Deadline to Submit NFDA Expo Booth Contract The deadline to be listed as an exhibitor and to advertise in the Souvenir Program is Friday, For those of us in funeral service the NFDA Expo is a must see! It is simply the largest collection in the world of funeral products and ideas to help make us successful. The Expo gathers together hundreds of displays and thousands of representatives to assist us in meeting the needs of the families we serve today. I encourage everyone to make it a priority to attend the NFDA Convention and Expo. All other meetings and conventions pale in comparison.
By generating high-quality leads that need fewer follow-up sales calls, trade-show marketing results in greater profit per sales.
Aggressive promotion of your exhibit will optimize booth traffic and generate a greater number of high-quality leads.

Instead of offering the Expo Only Fee on only the last day, this year, funeral directors can choose ANY day of the week to attend ONLY the Expo if they wish. With Chicago being close enough to drive to, this new Expo One day Any day fee is ready to accommodate all funeral directors' busy schedules at 48% lower costs than last year. Spread the word!
