With live events taking a back seat, we have expanded our capabilities to bring shows and meetings to life virtually! We assisted American Association of Cosmetology Schools (AACS) in transforming CEA 2020 from a traditional live event to a virtual show experience. Attendees were greeted with an interactive lobby full of sponsor banners and commercial loops mimicking a traditional convention hall. Sonya Dove kicked off the show with a passionate and inspiring keynote session. Attendees then immediately jumped into break-out and hands-on sessions while receiving “Continuing Education Units” certification hours, and can go back and view content for the next 30 days. Attendees visited the networking lounge, and even interacted with exhibitors in the virtual exhibit hall. The interactive booths included clickable components for attendees to receive product and service information, marketing materials, promotions, as well as the ability to set up meetings direct with the exhibitor partners. Sam Villa Professional wrapped up the event with a motivational closing ceremony where the winners of the 3-day interactive scavenger hunt and school spirit awards were announced. Attendees received the value and experience of going to a show from home, while exhibitor partners walked away with valuable data and analytics.
