CES Show 2009
Monday, January 5th, 2009I’ll be heading to the CES show this week. It will be my first time there so I am looking forward to it. I have spoken to some people who have attended and it sounds daunting. I have been to Las Vegas before and it is a massive place.
In leading up to the show, I definitely notice the difference in attendance. I almost went last year and noticed the hotel rooms are sometimes going for less then half of what they had in the past. Also, incentive offers are abundant as well as cheaper and more available flights.
This does appear to be the year where only the core people are going, which looks like the theme of 2009. Only things that need to be done, will be done in a no frills kind of way. We will be no different.
It will be key to identify future trends, when scouting products, I will have to choose wisely so energy in 2009 will be spent marketing products that people want, where we can make money on with less service and hassle.
I’ll let you now how it goes.
