How to prepare B2B prospecting at Roma Mineral Show 2026
- Set daily goals. With only two days, prioritize targets by purchase potential and block time for meetings.
- Segment contacts. Separate hobbyist collectors from professional buyers focused on repeat orders or larger lots.
- Bring concrete sales materials. Carry printed or tablet catalogs with clear photos, dimensions and weight data for specimens.
- Present concise commercial terms. Prepare short proposals for minimum orders and trade conditions for professional buyers.
- Capture leads on site. Use a digital form or CRM app to log contacts and schedule follow-ups after the event.
