The New England Independent Booksellers Association Trade Show offers you a cost-effective, focused opportunity to reach an impressive number of booksellers, all in one exhibit hall. It is the largest of the regional shows with a 3 to 2 ratio of booksellers to exhibitors. This year we are expecting 1,000 booksellers from approximately 275 stores.

To maximize your sales at NEIBA please consider three important opportunities:

• Special Offers: Make your table a bookseller destination. Send us your show specials BEFORE JULY 11 and they will be included in the pre-registration brochure and Trade Show Newsletter.

• NEIBA’s Mailing List: Rent our comprehensive list of New England bookstores and highlight your new offerings prior to the show.

• Show Program Advertising: Showcase your company’s products in our 60-page guide used by booksellers year-round.

NEIBA will encourage show business by providing you with raffle tickets to give to buyers when they place orders. Drawings will occur during the two days of the show. Book Buzz (now called Publisher Picks) will return new and improved, off the show floor, as part of our Educational Programming.

On a first come, first serve basis, you may also rent off the floor meeting rooms for conferences
with booksellers. Please contact me for further information.

I hope each of you who has been with us in the past will be returning and I hope this is the year that some of you who have been thinking of exhibiting will join us!

With best wishes for your success at the NEIBA Trade Show,

Steve Fischer
Executive Director
