How to prepare B2B prospecting in La Roche-sur-Foron
Schedule meetings for the vernissage and early Saturday. Many exhibitors run stand openings during the vernissage so identify priority stands in advance and request meetings by email.
Materials to bring. Printed brochures and PDF catalogues on tablet work well. Since photography is restricted, request image permission on site or collect official photos for your records. Bring clear payment and invoicing options if acquisitions are part of your agenda.
Sales approach. Focus on the artist narrative, editions and logistical details such as shipping and insurance. Short written agreements after verbal commitments help secure transactions.
