“I am blown away with the success of this rebook and the way the Head Start team designed and ran the whole process. It has given the event's growth strategy a massive boost.”
James Howell, Founder, Digital Accountancy Show
Making It Happen
Running the best rebook demands a distinctive skill set compared to the usual stand sales process and often requires a larger team than you would typically employ throughout the year.
​
At Head Start, we have the capacity to equip and enhance your team's capabilities, ensuring they are well-prepared and trained to harness the full potential of the rebook. We can offer expert guidance on crafting the most effective rebooking procedure, train your sales team to be master rebookers, supplement your team with experienced exhibition sales professionals during the rebooking phase, and even take control of the entire rebook process on your behalf.
​
Our goal is to empower your event with the tools, people and strategies required to achieve your best rebook ever. If you're seeking to optimise your rebooking results, Head Start is here to partner with you every step of the way.
