Quick survey nets some insightful responses

A quick survey of attendees and exhibitors at ProMat 2017 yielded a notebook full of praise. Some of the comments included: 

I really liked the REI presentation.... They were speaking from the heart and rang bells for what some retailers are doing.
—Chris Smolen, Director of Engineering-Technology, syncreon

I am looking to see what’s new in AGVS. We use them in limited capacity now; looking to see what’s happening next.
—Michael Deter, Staff Engineer, Honda

We experienced higher traffic this year compared to other years, partially because we released multiple new products. We ran some advertising pre-show and that helped drive traffic to our booth, too. One of the comments we’ve heard repeatedly throughout the show is that they like our open and inviting space. We upped our square footage this year and that gave us higher interactivity between OPEX staff, equipment and the techies.
—Nancy Ciliberti, Marketing Coordinator, OPEX

We hoped to reconfirm commitments with our vendor base, which we were able to do, and to search out new vendors for government business. I was very successful with both. I love walking around. You just want to stop and look and see what makes one product different from the other ones.
—David Easterbrook, CEO, AME Vertical

The organization level of ProMat is exceptional compared to other shows. It is always run immaculately.
—Mark McLain, Divisional Sales Manager, Garlock Safety Systems
