Testimonials

Don't Take Our Word For It...

“We wrote more business on-site this year than we did in 2008, and we’ve already had clients whom we met at the Show placing orders in our stores. The AD Show continues to work. My sales team reported even more serious prospects than in 2008 and looks forward to this event every year. They come here knowing that they are going to meet people who will become their customers. Enjoying this level of success in this economic environment speaks volumes about the AD Show brand.”

“What an astoundingly successful Show! We sold over 90 bags and took over 200 sample requests for our leather. I am floating from the success!”

“The Architectural Digest Home Design Show is the gold standard. We not only reach so many in the A&D community, but also the retail consumers, who are affluent, alert and design oriented.”

“Of the all the shows I have done, the AD Show ranks as the best right out of the gate. Exhibiting here is the single best decision I have made to advance my art career, netting immediate sales, leads and other marketing opportunities.”

“The energy that goes into participating in the Architectural Digest Home Design Show produces an even greater energy on the other end. I met several new clients as a result of my participation in the designer consultation program. One client indicated that she only came to get general ideas; but after our brief meeting that weekend, she called me to work on her New York City apartment. We’ve already started to discuss a follow-up project for her house in the Hamptons. The Show is a great place to make a design impact and gain projects at the same time.”

“Miele began exhibiting at the Architectural Digest Home Design Show three years ago and my only regret is that we didn’t engage sooner! Given the economic conditions this year, we were forced to make some dramatic marketing campaign changes and redeployments; but nonetheless, we stayed committed to exhibiting. And we’re so glad we did! The show was packed with qualified trade professionals, and the opportunity to greet consumers one-on-one was again very positive. Traffic, leads and sales conversions were much higher compared to previous years. Kudos to the organizers for making a luxury show that works so well!”

“We had a wonderful Show this year and are now working on two substantial projects from this year's exhibition. We made so many good, long-term connections which we know will lead to future projects for us and have decided that we need to attend this Show every year if possible.”
