Want to generate real revenue—not just badge scans—at your next trade show?

In this episode of Trade Show University, we sit down with Allison French (founder of ShowScout & LTO) to break down how strategic demand generation transforms trade show performance.

If you're tired of:

  • Low-quality leads
  • Random booth traffic
  • Weak ROI from expensive events

…this conversation will show you how to target the right buyers, align sales and marketing, and turn trade shows into a predictable revenue channel.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Identify and connect with your ideal attendees BEFORE the show
  • Use data and intent signals to prioritize high-value prospects
  • Align your sales and marketing teams for better results
  • Turn booth conversations into real pipeline opportunities
  • Use strategic incentives (the right way) to drive qualified engagement

👉 If you want more meetings, better leads, and measurable ROI from events, this is a must-watch.
