Make the most of your time on the floor. With over 140 vendors showcasing cutting-edge OR solutions, these five strategies will help you have meaningful, productive conversations.
Exhibitors have brought their products to show you how they work. Spend a few minutes listening to a product demonstration to learn more about the products your teams are working with every day.
Challenges you are facing can be alleviated by talking with the exhibitors. Having a better understanding of the issues that need to be addressed will help exhibitors uncover the features of their products and services that will uniquely benefit you.
You're more likely to learn about specific aspects of a product if you ask a simple question. For example: "Does this product integrate with systems I'm currently using?" or "Can you share how this affected outcomes at a facility similar to mine?" Simple questions open the door to meaningful conversations.
It may feel overwhelming when first entering the exhibit hall — approach it with a peer and move with confidence. This is your time. You are the expert on your facility, so share information with vendors and they'll help find your perfect product match.
While not all vendors will be offering something you need right now, you will eventually have needs in the future. Finding the right-fit vendor is more than just products and services — get to know the team and culture now, and you'll have a trusted partner ready when the time comes.
