I heard the price is $500 for the weekend at the Tri-Esox show. I was talking to a friend he said the booth costs him $500 for the weekend but looking back he splits the costs with his brother. In reality it is $1,000. TheWoz what shows are you going to this year?

Lots of smaller companies have started splitting costs.
I find the big name booths a complete waste of my time... When I actually go to a show.

There are not many good shows left or at least nothing like the fishing shows of my youth.

mike- As of now Milwaukee and schaumburg. I'm looking into trying to do one more but im trying to find a bigger one with a large attendance. The smaller more local style ones we dont seem to do that well at (lots of tire kickers). I noticed up north guys go there and WANT to spend money.
As far as booth splitting that has to be done moderately discrete. Like a fishing grip company handing out guide flyers is cool. Two separate companies in a 10x10 spot is a lot tougher. I know in the Milwaukee and schaumburg contracts they specifically say no booth sharing with the risk of being kicked out with no refund and no chance to come back in future years. I've had a few offers to split and I've had to decline b/c of those rules. As much as I'd like to save 50%!! That and 10x10 is a small space.

When you say Milwaukee do you mean the Muskie show in Milwaukee?
