I participated in The Business Show Miami as a paid exhibitor and masterclass presenter. The people who attended my sessions were engaged, and the feedback I received was very positive. My concern is not with the attendees who showed up. My concern is that the opportunity I believed I was purchasing did not match the actual event experience.

Before investing, I would strongly encourage exhibitors, speakers, consultants, and small business owners to ask very specific questions in writing:

What do “sign-ups” actually mean?
Are they general event registrations or session-specific commitments?
What percentage of people typically attend after signing up?
Is historical show-up data tracked?
What realistic attendance range should an exhibitor plan for?

In my experience, the sign-up numbers communicated before the event did not translate into actual attendance, and I was not given clear planning guidance when I asked. That impacted my preparation, staffing decisions, and overall return on the investment.

I understand that no event can guarantee revenue or attendance. But exhibitors should be given clear, practical context before making a significant financial commitment.

Based on my experience, I would not invest in this event again.

Archie Kenway recruited me to be a vendor for the Miami event. I did what is called a MasterClass. They promised that if I did 16 sessions over the 2 days they would fill the seats. That did not happen, attendance was very low, and it wasted a lot of my time and money. I have written to both Archie and Reggie Chard and neither have responded.
