ALTERNATIVE
OPPORTUNITIES
Our mission is to help you to achieve your marketing goals at the event.If there’s anything you’d like to do
for that all-important big impact on the audience, we can work with you to make it a reality. We’ve worked
with clients in the past to produce all kinds of creative branding solutions, from a giant red telephone in

Anything and everything is open to discussion and we would welcome the opportunity to work with you to
find a solution to your brand exposure aims.
SHOW SPONSORSHIP
Sponsorship of the B2B Marketing Expo is a unique opportunity to establish a brand association
and strong relationships early in the journey of tomorrow’s blue chips. The two tiers of
sponsorship offer a range of opportunities to display your branding prominently around the
event and across the advertising campaign. Ask us for more information.
ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES
Advertise your products and services to the entire audience and incentivise them to visit
your stand through the visitor’s digital show guide which is emailed to every single person
who registers for a ticket to the event.
MASTERCLASSES
One way to guarantee pre-qualified leads and make a big branding impact on the show is
to host a masterclass, based on a proven formula previously operated by Google, Yell, SAGE
and Microsoft. Unlike any other form of B2B marketing, there is no uncertainty. These 30
minute hands-on interactive sessions run throughout the day and allow you to demonstrate
your products and expertise. Masterclasses are the exhibition equivalent of pay-per-click
marketing and the price is on a ‘per seat’ basis, so you only pay for as many hot prospects
as you can take on.
