If you want to promote your products and services to masses, trade shows are the best place for you. Trade shows offer you an opportunity to interact directly with potential buyers and to understand consumer’s needs.

Organizing a trade show is essential to your business growth so Centre O Business Centre is here to help you.

With the right strategy, every trade show you attend is an opportunity to expand your company; even a small startup can strengthen its brand by exhibiting at a trade show. The people who attend trade shows tend to be motivated, interested in the products or services your company offers, and often ready to commit to a deal on the spot.

Exhibiting at a trade show in Hong Kong is a wonderful way to tell your industry that your company is serious, reliable, and large enough to afford its own presence at leading events.

By using your exhibit strategically, you can even position your company as being part of a niche within your market.

Loosing great colleagues and employees is awful and there is barely anything good about the experience.

But no matter how unpleasant experiences may be, we are as always, encouraged to take something positive away from it.

In this particular case, an article on Mashable.com suggested we use this opportunity to ask our soon to be ex-employees some direct question on job satisfaction and company environment. And since they are one foot out the door, we may get the honest answers we are searching for.

1. How did the job match your expectations?

This is not about titles, salary and bonuses, but rather regards the day-to-day work and whether it turned out to be in line with the job description presented at the interview.

Result: precise job descriptions and subsequently better hires.

2. Did you feel that the work you were doing aligned with your personal goals and interests?

Goal-setting is personal, of course. But employees who feel that their jobs are in line or at least not in juxtaposition with their personal goals, will definitely be happier at work.

Result: better understanding on the personalities that the job in question would suit.

3. Did you have the tools and resources you needed to effectively do your job?

Lowering costs is an ever-important process for every business.  However, there is no moving forward without the right systems and equipment in place. So why not learn what you may be missing?

Result: an extensive base of specific resources, that may attract more professionals in the field.

4. Would you recommend this as a great place for a friend to work?

This question can be a genuine request for a recommendation, if you think someone if your ex-employee’s circle could be a good addition to the company.

Alternatively, it can help you find out the selling points of the position for future hires.

Result: a potential new employee and a better knowledge of the benefits that come with the position.

 

Our team would like to say thank you for coming to the event.

It was a record turnout, and we were certainly impressed by the amount of energy and enthusiasm created by all the people in the standing room-only crowd.

We are already in the works to create another event and talking to new guests and new presenters about Business Investment Visa.
