BOOTH INFO

What is included in our booth?

Each exhibit space will have one (1) 6′ draped table and two (2) chairs. All booth areas are carpeted. See the conference sponsorship page for what is included with your registration.

Can I bring a backdrop?

Exhibitor displays, backdrops, booths, etc. will not visibly block or obstruct doorways, walkways, fire extinguishers, fire alarm pull stations, fire alarm audio/visual devices, fire department hose connections, or any other life and safety system.

Backdrops must be no wider than the booth width. This means you may have an 8-foot backdrop for your 8-foot-wide booth, or a 10-foot-wide backdrop if you registered for the booth upgrade. NO exceptions. This also applies to any flooring you plan to have in your booth. Backdrops or flooring wider than your booth will be asked to be removed. (This does not apply to custom booth spaces.)

What are the set up and teardown hours?

Set up is 12:00 pm – 7:00 pm on Wednesday.

Teardown is 4:15 pm – 7:00 pm on Saturday. Early teardown is prohibited. It is disruptive to the program and attendees will stop by until the end. There is an optional teardown from 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm as long as you do not require any materials from Show Management. Teardown must be complete with no boxes or items in aisles/walkways by 3:00 pm. Keep in mind that attendees want to talk to you following the raffle drawing. It is in your best interest to stay. All exhibitors must be torn down and out of the exhibit areas by 7:00 pm on Saturday. Please plan lodging and travel arrangements accordingly.

Can I set up after hours?

There will be no security and your freight will be unavailable, therefore it is highly discouraged.

Must I pay for people that only set up/teardown?

No, as long as the individuals are only present during set up and teardown.

Can additional tables or other furniture be ordered for my booth?

Yes, please contact Show Management at (954) 764-7642 to request more information. See the Exhibitor Kit (coming soon).

Can I select my own booth location?

All exhibitors will be asked to choose their preferred booth location within the interactive map in the Exhibitor Portal. While we will do our best to accommodate requests, AADOM does reserve the right to select final floor layout. For more information or specific requests, please contact Karin Wilson at karin@dentalmanangers.com or (559) 303-3730 Mon-Fri between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm Pacific time.

If I need a larger space can I purchase an additional booth?

Please contact Karin Wilson at Karin@dentalmanagers.com or (559) 303-3730 Mon-Fri between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm Pacific time for information on adding to or upgrading your booth space.

What color are the table linens provided in our booths?

The table coverings are black. 

How do I ship our materials to the conference location?

Please utilize our Show Management team for your shipping, electrical and Internet/AV needs as they are the liaison for the resort on behalf of AADOM.

What are the insurance requirements?

Each exhibitor is to have a current Certificate of Liability Insurance (COI). Due to exhibitor requests, we are including liability insurance which meets all of our insurance requirements along with your booth space fee. You will no longer need to go through all the hassles of submitting your own compliant insurance. We hope you appreciate this benefit.

SPONSORED BREAKOUT SESSIONS

Equipment for Sponsored Breakout Sessions (Educational Sponsors Only)

What equipment is included in our Industry Update educational session?

Each room will have a Projector, Screen, AV Cart, Lavaliere Microphone, Podium Microphone, Laptop Sound Connection. Please note, for best quality, we suggest using only PC or Mac for your presentation. Please note that your laptop will need a HDMI connection.  If you don’t have one, please have your adapter handy.

Plan to arrive in your room 30 minutes ahead so the AV team can assist with the setup of your equipment and test your presentation.

If you are using a PowerPoint, use the 16:9 format for your presentation.

RAFFLE PRIZES

Do all exhibitors provide raffle gifts?

It is not required but highly recommended. It is a booth draw and a way to collect attendee information.

Attendees will be provided an Exhibitor Passport/list of all exhibitors that they will be bringing to you to sign as they network with you. This passport becomes the attendees’ entry in the prize drawing held on Saturday.

The purpose of the passport is to direct traffic to your booth. We recommend that you do not sign multiple passports for a single person. Those who do not personally come to your booth should not receive sign off. Having a prize on display at your booth increases booth traffic. Should you offer a separate opportunity drawing at your booth, those winners will not be announced from the stage during the main prize drawing and should be posted at your booth.

Exhibitors should line up to the right of the stage by 3:30 pm on Saturday with their item. Prize winners will be drawn from the stage by AADOM staff from those passports who meet exhibitor roundup requirements. Exhibitors will come on stage, introduce themselves and their company, say what their item is and be photographed with the winner.

If your prize is not travel friendly, make a photo poster of the item to display at your booth and ship the actual item directly to the winner.

 

What kind of raffle gifts are usually provided?

Anything from gift cards, to spa certificates, to Keurig coffee makers, iPads, Kindles, designer handbags…the gifts should be for the individual, not the practice.

What is the average value of the raffle gifts provided?

It is up to the exhibitor but the average range is between $100 and $500.

SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Does AADOM offer other sponsorship opportunities?

Yes, please see Conference Sponsorship and our Media Kit.
