Congratulations!

From ASAE: “The American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) has announced it will honor Colin Rorrie Jr., PhD, CAE, President and CEO, Meeting Professionals International (MPI), with its 2004 Key Award, and George Aguel, Senior Vice President, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, with its 2004 Academy of Leaders Award. Both awards will be presented in ceremonies during ASAE’s 2004 Annual Meeting and Exposition August 14-17 in Minneapolis, MN.”

How do you deal with the “last-day” problem?

That’s what David Shaw over at B or not 2B wants to know:

Many trade shows have to deal with the problem of the "last day." The
problem: how do you keep the exhibit floor from becoming a ghost town
in the final hours as people hit the airport to get home?

He wonders if putting the best content last can help. It sure doesn’t hurt, but in my  experience, it still doesn’t totally solve the exodus problem. Do you have any advice to share with him? If so, drop it in the comments here or click here to comment on B or Not 2B.
