BOOTH INFO
What is included in our booth?
Each eight-foot exhibit space will have one (1) 6′ draped table and two (2) chairs. See the conference sponsorship page for what is included with your registration.
What are the set up and teardown hours?
Set up is 12:00 pm – 7:00 pm on Wednesday, September 6.
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. For exhibitors in the hallways outside of the main ballroom, there is an optional teardown from 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm (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) 764-7719 to request more information.
Can I select my own booth location?
All exhibitors will be asked to choose their booth location upon registration. A map showing available booths will be displayed at the beginning of the registration process. While we will do our best to accommodate requests, AADOM does reserve the right to select final floor layout.

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. Bring your giveaway with you or have it delivered to your booth and we will call you up during the prize giveaway portion of the program to hand to the lucky winner, who will be pulled by AADOM staff from qualifying passports. 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.
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.
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
How can our company be included in the conference mobile app?
