How Smart Agencies Turn Events into Authority and Leads
Tyler almost deleted the email.
It looked like spam.
But it turned out to be from the Queensland Law Society, offering a last-minute booth at a legal conference. One day. 300 lawyers. Five minutes from his office.
Most agencies would show up with a banner and cross their fingers.
Not Tyler.
Here’s what he did instead:
- He hunted down last year’s attendee list
Didn’t wait to meet people “at the booth.” He started working the list early. - He reached out to current clients
Not to pitch. Just to say:
“I’ll be there—want to grab coffee?” - He blocked time for post-event follow-up
In his calendar. Sacred.
Because fortune favors the follow-up. - He asked the organizers a simple question:
“Do you need content for your site?”
They said yes.
And now he’s creating Continuing Professional Content for their members.
Not a vendor.
An authority.
Here’s the thing…
Events aren’t about foot traffic.
They’re about footwork.
The booth gets you in the room.
Your prep makes you unforgettable.
