Awards for 2016 FIT Show exhibitors

More than 170 companies will be exhibiting at The FIT Show in April 2016 and it will be one of the most intensive marketing activities most of them will undertake in that year. So with that in mind, the organisers of The FIT Show believe it is only right to encourage exhibitors of all sizes to set the bar even higher and then to recognise and promote the very best efforts made for their stands, and also for their marketing and promotion campaigns in the run up to The FIT Show.

Thus The FIT Show Awards have been created, with six categories that will seek out the very best efforts of exhibitors taking part in The FIT Show and the months preceding the event. The honours will be bestowed upon the winners at the Gala Dinner, which takes place on the middle evening (Wednesday) of the event. The FIT Show Awards are open to all companies exhibiting at The FIT Show 2016 no matter what size stand. The idea is to encourage creativity, innovation, professionalism and sheer hard work. It isn’t about budget either – some of the best ideas come from the heart and soul.

Winning one or more of The FIT Show Awards will demonstrate in real terms the marketing capabilities of that exhibitor. Everyone loves a winner and the accolades will be bestowed for excelling at the highest profile and best-known event in the window, door, conservatory and glass industry!

How it works – There are six categories for exhibitors to enter focusing on such disciplines as social and digital media as well as the designs and performance of the stands themselves. Just two categories require exhibitors to enter with every FIT Show exhibitor automatically entered for the rest. Categories are: • Most effective use of Social and Digital Media; • Most successful visitor campaign in terms of visitors delivered; • Best creative FIT 2016 marketing campaign; • Best stand design under 80m2/Sapphire, Opal, Crystal; • Best stand design over 80m2/Diamond, Diamond Plus; • Most creative shell scheme stand.

The FIT Show’s Matthew Glover believes that whilst the ultimate prize for exhibitors will be a great show with new customers and a brimming order book, the FIT Show Awards provide the icing on the cake: “When I walked around the halls at the first two FIT Shows I was blown away by the efforts made by exhibitors. So now we want to tell exhibitors just how much we respect and appreciate their efforts, which have made The FIT Show the success it is.”
