I must admit, though, that the caliber of the presenters I've seen is a pretty mixed bag. There are some who seem to think it's all about their entertainment value. How funny they are. How impressive their skill set. I am MUCH more impressed when I see a presentation that marries these skills and performing abilities with a strong message. I want some real content. Not a data dump of speeds and feeds, but a story that is compelling and teaches me something I might not have known about this company. Whether that's done with comedy, juggling, fire-eating, balloons or even Powerpoint is immaterial. What matters is the strength and clarity of the message.

It’s amazing the impact this can have on a company’s ROI. I agree that not all trade show presenters are suited for every show, and it’s so important for companies to realize this. The balloon animal idea is a unique one, and I’ll admit it would certainly grab my attention. Excellent explanation of the benefits of a great trade show presenter!
