It all starts at the gate, whether it's the exhibitor's entrance or the visitor's entrance. The show needs to be friendly and accommodating to the exhibitors so they will want to stay for the duration. The show needs to have people available to help the exhibitor find his spot and possibly help unload his machinery. If the exhibitors are in a friendly, helpful environment while they exhibit they will be friendly to the show visitors who walk by their exhibit. If the gate fee paying visitors are given a smile when they cross the gate they will be in a good mood for the exhibitors.
I was the one who lined up the tractors at our show for maybe ten years. I was there for them all day and night for two or three days before the show. When someone came in with a tractor on a trailer I'd have a good comment about their tractor. It might have been a rusted pile of junk that barely ran but I'd say to him "my neighbor used to have one of those. It served him well for many years" and that made him smile and start talking about his tractor. If I'd be riding around the show on my cart and see him I'd give him a smile. I could almost guarantee he'd be back next year and during that year he'd be saying good things about our show to others.
Phew, got long winded there, but to sum it up, the show organizers can decide whether or not they want a friendly environment for the exhibitor. And that determines how long the exhibitor wants to stay. Now I've said it several times. Jim
