A woman came up to me, smiling. I thought she wanted to know about what the experts at the booth and I had to offer. So I told her about our offerings. She then only said one thing: may I have your business card? I gave it to her.Right then my internal alarm bell rang.I've attended many tradeshows in the past in which people would just ask for business owners' business cards without telling them why. 10 times out of 10, they wanted to sell people something with (read full article) |
