Zach Lyman says: (1) know what you\u2019re looking for. Or let me know sort of what you want to know. (2) Don\u2019t be embarrassed, ask, we all need to learn. (3) I\u2019m here to educate and have fun, don\u2019t be scared to say hi. Time 6:00 Lee Gordon (Instagram @LeeGordon), from Urnex likes to walk the floor and get a lay of the land. Then circle back to what he wants to see. Great idea, especially if you don\u2019t have time to see everything. Time 7:30 Derrick Wessels (Instagram @coffee_derrick) from Beagle Coffee is BACK! 1) I\u2019ll work a booth to cover flights. 2) I don\u2019t bring business cards, I bring swag like hats. Sarah Allen (9 mins) is queen of swag-hats. 3) Ship your winnings home. 4) Things can ship en route there, be very careful. 5) If its within 10 or so hours to drive, it may just be easier to drive. Like if you need groceries. 6) SNACKS, Bobos Bars from Boulder. Levi\u2019s fav is almonds and string cheese. Something about that lighting and talking makes ya thirsty! 7) Beware of stains on booth counters, things are dirty. 8) How do you change your mind-set? Concentrate on breathing. Some people listen to music in their headphones. Some speakers look at the room from all angles. 14:00 planning outfits to wear on the trade show floor. Easy to move around, water resistant clothes if possible.
