How to prepare B2B prospecting in Oldenburg
- Pre-select exhibitors
Review the exhibitor directory and set concrete targets: product fit, price range and origin. Focus on businesses whose production methods and aesthetics match your client base.
- Pack concise samples and sales briefs
Bring a limited set of physical samples and clear selling points. Be ready to explain wholesale terms, lead times and minimum order quantities to move conversations forward.
- Schedule short meetings
Use quieter times early in the day and before closing for longer conversations. Workshops are useful spots to observe public reaction to specific products.
- Follow up quickly
Document contacts with brief notes and prioritize a first email within three days after the market. A message that recalls the main talking point helps convert the initial meeting into a business appointment.
Practical visitor information
Buy tickets online to take advantage of the reduced price. Visitors should follow venue safety rules and note that dogs are not permitted. Free WiFi is available and accessibility information is provided for visitors with mobility limitations. Opening hours on both days are 10:00 to 17:00.
Closing recommendation
To validate products and approach local buyers, concentrate on meetings with small shops and design studios that handle limited runs. Check the exhibitor list, plan short meetings and review workshop schedules. Find tickets, workshops and the exhibitor directory at https://www.handgemachtes-ol.de
