b"2025Post WPMAEXPOSmart Strategiesfor EngagementThis years WPMAEXPO also introduced creative engagement strategies to enhance the exhibitorand attendee experience. Thepedometer challenge encouraged attendees to explore the entire show floor, gamifying networking and increasing booth traffic in an organic way. This small addition made a big impact, keeping the energy high and ensuring exhibitors had steady foot traffic throughout the event.After three days of competition, the overall pedometer challenge winner wasROY HALL from Hall Oil in Lewiston, UT , who logged an impressive number of steps while making the most of every opportunity to connect with exhibitors.2025 Survey Says: What did you like BEST aboutthe WPMAEXPO?The Wednesday turnout was good.Touching base with the other people in the industrythat I normally only get to communicate with through e-mails. Putting faces to names.I thought it was a very nice and beneficial touch to include the meals that were served on the show floor it kept people AT THE SHOW and gave opportunities to mingle and network. Never really seen a show do this (where) it was just included and not some separate fee, and it kept folks from having to head outside for food (which often . makes it convenient to just not return after eating, making for limited show floor activitylater in the day .) NICE TOUCH!The trade show. The opportunity to reconnectwith existing clients, welcome new opportunitiesand grow brand equity.The opportunity to spend time with industryprofessionals from across the West.For this being my first time, I enjoyed Trump speaking and then the trade show, that's what I was there for, the trade show and networking where I could.WPMA News / Spring 202521"
