Day 5
Bright and breezy we were ready. The chateau had made signs for the parking and Big dish was first to set up. It was great to see all of the familiar faces. We feel that we have made
a lot of friends.A man came up to us and said hello my name is Bernard panic struck as I didn't have an exhibitor named Bernard. The hall had been planned very carefully and there was no room left. Horrified I said " and which company are you representing?". He replied " I am the MD of the chateau". Relived in one way for not forgetting an exhibitor but totally embarrassed not to have been introduced to him before.
The day was just perfect and people just kept coming in.
New businesses came and introduced themselves. They had been following the success of our fairs and now wanted to be part of our success.
Matt and Alistair had invited the exhibitors to the after fair get together where everybody had the opportunity to network and to talk about the success of the day.
Many contacts were made and everybody that exhibited was seen by hundreds of peopl
e. It only takes one good lead and your stand is paid for.Everybody went home after a good days work accept one exhibitor who we can't name however he wanted to show us his best dance moves! Melanie Mongoose and Amanda Cowell advised him to keep coming to the fairs and not to give up his day job!
We returned back to the gite got changed and joined Matt and Alistair ( sweetcakes) from Halo financial for dinner in Eymet. We were told about a new bistro and thought we would try it. We were all really tiered and hungry especially the boys. Don't want to say too much about it but the service and attitude was terrible! No customer comes first policy at this place. What a shame especially after the great day we had.
We left the restaurant and headed back. We managed to watch xfactor but fell asleep after that.
