Tradeshow Superheroes and Exhibiting Zombies: 66 Lists Making the Most of Your Tradeshow Marketing (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781983514920)

Tim started TradeshowGuy Blog in November 2008 as a way to "try that new blogging thing everyone is talking about" and see if he could make it stick. Hundreds of posts and nearly a decade later the blog still going strong. In naming TradeshowGuy Blog as one of the top industry blogs, Hello Trive online digest calls Tim Patterson an "absolute expert of the tradeshow industry;" Nimlok Exhibits, in a top ten industry blog listing, calls Tim's TradeshowGuy Blog "hilarious, thoughtful and informative" and Dio says Tim is a "true tradeshow pro with a blog chock full of tips and best practices to get maximum ROI." Tim calls himself an old drummer and disk jockey who found new life at the turn of the century in the events and tradeshow industry. An old radio colleague gave him the TradeshowGuy moniker totally by accident! He's run his own business, TradeshowGuy Exhibits, since 2011. Tim is an author, blogger, speaker, podcaster and a business advisor. He spent 26 years on-air in the radio industry; has played in uncountable rock bands in unknowable clubs and forgotten the lyrics to more oldies than you'll ever hear. Since joining the tradeshow industry in 2002, Tim's exhibiting clients have included Bob's Red Mill, Kettle Foods, Nancy's Yogurt, Schmidt's Naturals, Dave's Killer Bread, Wedderspoon, Meduri Farms, Hyland's, Betterment, Marquis Spas, US Army Corp of Engineers, Oregon State Marine Board, Oregon Department of Forestry, ATI Wah Chang, and many others. He has given presentations at annual conferences of the Event Marketing Summit and the Experiential Designers and Producers Association (EDPA), and spoken before private groups. This is Tim's second book. Look for his first: Tradeshow Success: 14 Proven Steps to Take Your Tradeshow Marketing to the Next Level.
