There is no better publication that I am aware of that is so accurate and on top of any news and developments in our industry. I personally recommend it to many people that want to know and understand more about our industry. For the most part, shop-eat-surf.com gets the stories first. As a matter of fact, I require all the executives in our company to read it.

The Spring 2011 show was absolutely incredible, featuring a sold out house of 80 booths, the industry's best brands, as well as some VIP execs in from around the country. Truly as major step up in helping everyone from reps to retailers to manufacturers run a more successful business, this last show in September was a milestone and a hallmark of things to come.

Other Regional Action Expo Shows
In an effort to help you hit those pesky deadlines, we are developing some other regional shows. These shows are limited to exhibitors of the Action Expo in Atlantic City. Space here is extremely limited as well and will be done on a first-come, first-pay basis. Here's the tentative schedule:
