Straight Talk from Han Leenhouts (Part 2)

Han Leenhouts Unfiltered! (Part 2)

This is Part 2 of a two-part interview with Han Leenhouts author of Sales & Pepper, based in The Hague (Den Haag), The Netherlands.

This is one of the most fun, exciting, and inspirational episodes that we’ve had on The Global Exhibitor Podcast! In this interview, hosted by Jeff Hannah you can experience Han’s electric personality, and magnetic passion through his dynamic, engaging, and direct (Dutch) style. The primary focus of this episode is the importance of booth staff selection, training and engagement.

In this episode, Jeff asks Han to differentiate between the Dutch culture and mindset in comparison to other countries in Europe. Han talks about what Americans might not understand when working with the Dutch. They talk about the direct communications style, and the importance of being authentic and genuine.

Han emphasizes the importance of booth staff training and what the process generally looks like – involving both pre-show training as well as on-site coaching. He talks about setting goals for the show and how to measure where those goals are met.

Han elaborates on how asking the “right” questions is an important step in learning how to engage with people you have never met before. The right questions help to quickly qualify your potential leads and determine where to take the conversation. Han is a firm believer in being bold, taking risks, and stepping out of your comfort zone – which is what it takes in order to be really successful in trade show marketing.

As a side note, Jeff and Han briefly discuss perspectives on the war in Ukraine, as well as how Dutch DJ’s compare to others in the world! You don’t want to miss that!

Han Leenhouts is an internationally acclaimed author, keynote speaker, trainer, and coach in the trade show industry. Han is the author of Sales & Pepper, a book focused on the best ways to engage with people on the trade show floor, in conjunction with an effective exhibit. He is also the author of Peppertalk 2.0, which is focused on open-ended, thought-provoking questions which can be used to effectively engage with others on the show floor. Han owns Sales & Pepper, a training and coaching firm based in The Netherlands.

Han Leenhouts Unfiltered! (Part 1)

This is Part 1 of a two-part interview with Han Leenhouts author of Sales & Pepper, based in The Hague (Den Haag), The Netherlands.

This is one of the most fun, exciting, and inspirational episodes that we’ve had on The Global Exhibitor Podcast! In this interview, hosted by Jeff Hannah you can experience Han’s electric personality, and magnetic passion through his dynamic, engaging, and direct (Dutch) style. The primary focus of this episode is the importance of booth staff selection, training and engagement.

Han is focused on outcomes! But, far too many get it wrong! As part of his consultative, training, and coaching initiatives, Han works globally with brands to help establish and reach goals for their trade show participation. With clearly defined goals in mind, you can then work to achieve those goals – and recognize when you have or haven’t. Having the goals is important, but is not everything. Making the most of show floor interactions can make or break any trade show participation. Staff training is the next, hugely important component. Much of the booth staff training can happen in the planning phases, but some of it must happen on the show floor, in the actual physical environment in order to fully utilize the exhibit in the way it was designed to be used.

Jeff asks Han about his views on staffing a booth with marketing team members vs. sales vs. technical staff. Han talks in detail about how to select the right people to fill the various roles required on the show floor. Han gives his recommendations on the ideal mix of profiles for the roles, and how to play to people’s strengths. He focuses on the importance of booth staff attitude and outlook on working on the show floor. It is critical for them to understand their purpose, as well as the best ways to approach people and start meaningful interactions.

Respect for cultural differences is important for working across cultures. But, when looking for ways to engage with others, Han urges people to tap into the most basic and common human characteristics – those things we share in common – rather than focusing on our differences. Shaping questions in just the right way to capture a visitor’s attention immediately is essential in the busy, distracting, and fast-paced show floor environment. Han is a master at engaging both individuals and audiences.

Tradeshow Engagement Optimization with Lee Ali (Part 2)

Tradeshow Engagement Optimization with Lee Ali (Part 2)

This is Part 2 of an interview with Lee Ali of Expo Stars Interactive, based in Manchester, England. Host Jeff Hannah asks Lee about the Five E’s of Engagement, booth staffing recommendations, and getting the right people in the right places in an exhibit.

Lee and Jeff discuss various outlooks regarding the attendee experience model in the post-COVID world. How have expectations of engagements and interactions changed during the past couple of years? What problems are we seeing now? And how are expectations continuing to change? It is more important than ever to staff your booth in the right way in order to achieve more successful outcomes.

A key insight that Lee has is that booth staffers tend to do too much talking and not enough listening as they are working an exhibit. Additionally, Lee makes some somewhat controversial statements about whether or not exhibiting is primarily a marketing activity or a sales activity. Jeff asks Lee about how to find the correct balance between sales, marketing, product or technical specialists, and senior executives.

Lee Ali is an international speaker, entrepreneur, business coach, mentor, sales strategist and a qualified iMA practitioner. He is widely regarded as the go-to source for attendee engagement and lead generation at global tradeshow exhibitions, conferences and live marketing events.

Lee’s passion from very early on in his business career has been understanding what makes people buy and how to truly connect with them so that they are deeply engaged with what you do.

As well as contributing his valuable insights to industry press and media, Lee has been invited to speak at various conferences across the world on audience engagement including; UFI Asia Pacific Conference in Malaysia, Middle East Event Show in Dubai, Sales and Marketing Expo in LA, The Business Show in London, Expo Expo! in Las Vegas, EXHIBITORLIVE in Las Vegas, Event Tech Live in London and more. Lee also hosts the “In Conversation with Expo Stars” podcast interviewing experts from the tradeshow industry.

Lee founded Expo Stars Interactive, an award winning exhibition engagement company, to support exhibitors worldwide to engage more attendees to their booth, convert them into qualified sales leads, raise their brand awareness, and deliver measurable results.

Since 2007, the Expo Stars team have been supporting exhibitors at all the major global exhibitions including Arab Health, Mobile World Congress, CES, GITEX, BAUMA, HPE Discover, Cisco Live, Black Hat, Microsoft Convergence, CONEXPO-CON/AGG and many more.

Lee is also passionate about health and well-being. He is a qualified Reiki practitioner and incorporates the power of positive energy into his unique 5 E’s framework for personal, business, sales and marketing success.

This interview was recorded online from both Manchester, England (UK) and Dayton, Ohio (USA) with host Jeff Hannah.

Tradeshow Engagement Optimization with Lee Ali (Part 1)

In this episode, host Jeff Hannah interviews Lee Ali of Expo Stars Interactive, based in Manchester, England. In this episode, Jeff asks Lee about several unique aspects of his work and business model. This is part one of a two-part series with Lee.

Lee discusses his Remote Exhibiting Model, which is a new development born in the midst of the COVID-19 Pandemic, when companies were prevented from traveling due to restrictions of one kind or another. This Model allows companies to still participate in trade shows in a very real, legitimate, and effective way, even when their own staff members cannot attend IRL.

Lee also discusses his outlook regarding the attendee experience model in the post-COVID world. How have expectations of engagements and interactions changed during the past couple of years? And how do they continue to change? Due to show attendance still down from the previous era, exhibitors are spending similar (if not more) dollars but getting access to fewer attendees. So, what can and should exhibitors do to address that in the most effective way possible?

Lee shares insights on cultural differences and their relative importance in the exhibition world and on the show floor. And he talks in depth about a new phrase which he recently coined, “Tradeshow Engagement Optimization – also known as TEO.

Jeff Hannah with Martin Besaris

The Best Industry in the World

Martin Besaris Describes the Best Industry in the World

In this episode, host Jeff Hannah interviews Martin Besaris (Martijn Besaris) of The Inside Standbouw, based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Martin describes the exhibition industry as the “best industry in the world” – and describes the amazing degree of fulfilment and excitement that it creates for him personally and professionally.

Jeff talks with Martin about how the Dutch have been dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, and the never-ending stream of variants. They discuss it from an industry perspective, including how the government of The Netherlands worked with companies (early in the pandemic) to put together plans for dealing with employee reductions, finances, and business survival. Martin talks about the current outlook regarding recovery and return of the exhibition industry. He also discusses the return of international travel, and the administrative challenges with that.

Jeff and Martin take a deeper look into the Dutch mindset and culture regarding personal behavior, freedoms, and lack of written rules. People in the society are generally free to “do as they please” in terms of beliefs and behaviors. The Dutch tend to have a strong outlook on business, with a high degree of focus on international. Education is important and expected. It is typical to start learning English and German in preschool. Martin also talks about similarities and differences the Dutch have with other European countries as well as the USA.

Recent societal and business shifts in The Netherlands has led to more people working with their “heads” instead of their “hands.” This (along with the pandemic) has created a shortage of carpenters and other skilled craftspeople, especially for the exhibition industry. Martin urges industry associations, companies, and individuals to make a more concerted effort to expose youth to this unique industry so that they can consider it as a career option. He discusses how this industry is fun, beautiful and exciting – and offers a very broad range of exposure to other industries.

Martin talks about the various languages that he speaks, as well as how he found his way into the exhibition industry, with the help of The Inside founder, Michael Hermans. Martin discusses his current role, which primarily focuses on international sales.

Jeff asks Martin for his insights into trends and developments that he is seeing in the industry across Europe – and recommendations on how companies should adjust their approach. They discuss the value of good exhibit design and the importance of differentiation and the need to quickly capture attention on the show floor. Martin believes that companies need to more carefully consider the geographic location of where a show is located, and the targeted attendees. Too often companies create graphics in their own native language, which is okay for some situations. But in others, it’s not the best approach (i.e. Germany). Either way, companies generally use too much written text (copy) for their graphics, which nearly always gets overlooked. QR codes are growing in popularity, especially during COVID.

The Inside Standbouw (Stand Builder) has been in business for more than 25 years, and provides turn-key services for exhibitions, interiors, and events in The Netherlands, across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and in many other locations. Michael Hermans is the founder, and owner / CEO. The Inside is well known for their award-winning design capabilities and their thoughtful, strategic, comprehensive approach to projects.

This interview was recorded during EDPA ACCESS 2021 at the The Diplomat Beach Resort Hollywood Curio Collection in Hollywood, Florida with host Jeff Hannah.
