Exhibit Advisory Committee
The purpose of the EAC is to foster relationships between exhibitors and AHIMA to provide an exceptional experience at the AHIMA convention. The EAC solicits input from and represents all AHIMA exhibitors, reviews and sets exhibit related policies and acts as a resource and provides support to exhibitors throughout the year.
As you begin to prepare for the convention, AHIMA encourages you to contact any or all of the EAC members with questions about exhibiting, or with comments and suggestions about the upcoming convention.
Here are just a few tricks of the trade that the EAC would like to share with you to help make your exhibition a success!

Call all show contractors 7 days before the event and confirm all orders. Don't forget to get the name of the person you are talking too.
Track all freight and bring all tracking information with you to the show.
Bring copies of all paperwork to the event. Also, make sure the person setting up the booth has a copy of all forms and booth blueprints as well.
Don’t forget to list your booth number on all of your direct mail pieces, advertisements, flyers, and brochures.
Prioritize the leads collected at the convention with a “1, 2, 3” rating system for easy follow-up after the show. A rating of “1” should be called immediately, a rating of “2” should receive literature and follow up call, and a rating of “3” should be put on a mailing list.*If you have any questions about the tips provided above, please feel free to contact the EAC member who provided the tip(s) directly. They would be more than happy to speak with you.
