"The camaraderie at these meetings can't be beat! Some of these people I've known for 25 years, so getting to reconnect with them is something I always look forward to. At the trade fair, I can really get down to business because I get to meet face-to-face with so many vendors. I like that the trade fair is over two days because it gives me more time to make the rounds."
