When we went to showcase EBD in Atlanta, we also had the opportunity to shop as BUYERS for my brick & mortar gift store, Mill & Meadow. I'd never purchased at a trade show before, and it turns out there's a LOT of lingo and process to know. And Atlanta is really special, because some of the vendors are there 365 days a year! This is a quick dive into the things you'll want to know if you're thinking of attending a trade show in Atlanta or other parts of the country.
