Trade show game plans

Inflow builds your team’s game plan for every trade show, so you walk in with a target list and walk out with a pipeline.

Five weeks before the show, your reps get a plan. Thirty days after, you get a report on what it produced.

Your event. A clear direction.

5 WEEKS BEFORE

The game plan

Priority contacts. Target firms. Conversations worth having.

30 DAYS AFTER

The results report

Planned vs. actual. Pipeline generated. A clear next move.

The problem

Most teams show up without a plan.

Sales teams arrive at trade shows and work whoever walks by the booth. After the show, marketing is left defending the spend with badge scans and a gut feeling. The event may have paid off. Nobody can show it.

How it works

A plan before, focus during, evidence after.

01 / Before the show

5 weeks out, we deliver your game plan: who to meet, why they matter, what to say, which sessions to attend, and how to follow up.

02 / At the show

Your reps work the plan. They know their targets, their talking points, and where to be.

03 / After the show

At 30 days, we report planned versus actual results and the pipeline the event generated.

What’s included

Two deliverables per event.

Pre-show game plan

Due 5 weeks before the show. Objective and success metric, positioning, a ranked contact list, target firms, an annotated agenda, a conversation framework, what to avoid, and a follow-up workflow.

Post-show results report

At +30 days. Planned versus actual, plus pipeline generated.

Who it’s for

For B2B teams turning events into business.

Inflow works with founders, business development teams, sales leaders, and marketers who use trade shows, conferences, and industry events to meet buyers, build partnerships, and grow their pipeline—whether they’re exhibiting or attending.

Founders

Sales leaders

Marketing teams

Business development teams

You don’t need a large booth or a dedicated event team. If your business sells to other businesses and you’re investing time or money in an industry event, a clear game plan can help. Our starting focus is Western Canada, with relevance across sectors.

Pricing

Start with one event.

We price per event first. Once you’ve seen the results, we can move to an annual program that covers your show calendar.

Research

State of Event Selling 2026

We’re surveying B2B marketing and sales teams on how they plan, work, and measure trade shows. It takes under 3 minutes, and everyone who takes part gets the aggregate results report.
