If you have a service that dog owners should know about, check out the opportunities at Pet Expos in 2010:
Nearly 10,000 people (and their pets!) attended the 2009 St. Louis Pet Expo on Saturday, October 24.
A great time was had by all!
Here are some comments by our exhibitors:
"Expo was ALWAYS busy, there had to have been over 100 attendees waiting for the doors to open!!! LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of dogs. The aisles were ALWAYS packed and only slowed down a little during the costume show, since everyone was at that show. There were still a lot of attendees even up to the last minute of the show. The show set-up encouraged attendees to pass every booth, something going on in every corner. A great variety of animals-rabbits, ferrets, ponies even alpacas, then of course there were dogs and cats. There was something for everyone. We were very happy and will be back next year. We will be only bringing a few kittens for adoption next year, the NETWORKING was the best part for us. Thanks again, will look forward to next year."
"A very well attended show that offered consumer contests, informational seminars and a good outlet for retail pet product sales. This event was well advertised on highway billboards and the local radio stations. RocketStar drew a big, enthusiastic crowd at this first time Pet Expo."
"Most dog owners don't know that professional dog waste removal services are available. Our exposure through the St. Louis Pet Expo was money and time well spent. RocketStar shows ran a great expo and we look forward to working with them again."
