Social Distancing at the Fair

(State fair or County Fair)

As we are entering the season of County Fairs -- and soon State Fairs to follow -- the concept of social distancing remains forefront in the minds of fair-goers all across the country.

​

County fairs and state fairs are -- in many ways -- similar to Consumer Shows.   They have commercial exhibitors, and direct consumer interactions.   

 

But, the fairs go way beyond that.   Most of them also have the annual 4-H and FFA contest terminal events for the county or state.   There is often a midway, and the fairgrounds themselves often have attractions that are unique to the event.

​

Complete social distancing is certainly not possible.    But, tools like tXpo do bring some options to the table for the commercial exhibitors portion of the event.

​

With tXpo.us, your consumer attendees are able to simply send a short text code to a number posted in the booth.   In the process, they make a firm digital contact connection with the exhibitor, and can then also retrieve the exhibitor literature digitally -- all without having to touch anything -- or carry the literature around for that matter.  The attendee and exhibitor can then dialog with each other at their own convenience -- either onsite or a later time.

​

So, tXpo is an excellent low-cost lightweight way to make firm contact connections, and close more deals at/from your fair.

​

tXpo was not originally designed for social distancing.   It was originally designed as a exhibition tool to;

​

  • Green the event thru digital literature distribution

  • Create consumer-initiated inquiries for exhibitors

  • Bring new revenue to the show producer

  • Be lightweight and stand-alone in it's implementation

​

These features remain and bring value, even if your primary concern is social distancing.

​

So, as you are planning your fair -- be it county or state -- you might consider the tXpo system.  It's light, inexpensive, and stand-alone.   And, it's BRAND NEW!!  Very tech trendy!!

​

It uses the tools and skills that your attendees already have and know;

  • no training

  • no special app

  • no passwords or logins

  • no reliance on onsite infrastructure

  • no relationship to registration or badging (as most fairs don't have this anyway).

​

To understand more about how this works, reference this article.   And, then contact us and we'll work with you for your fair.

​

Keep tXpo in mind for your next County or State fair!!
