| Tiivistelmä: | This paper aims to examine the behaviour of consumers in an industrial trade show (here as: t-s.) context, the International Tourism Bourse (ITB) tourism t-s. It is addresses if it is strategically adept to allow final consumers into an industrial t-s. Using a mall intercept method, questions were designed to uncover whether final consumers mimic industrial segments of current, potential or non-users etc. It is found that participants are current or potential and typically repeat. They are motivated and directed with booth choices being pre-planned. The study addresses the utility of free promotional gifts and the strategic implications of letting consumer access to an industrial event. |
