The fair has been attended. Although it was a pleasure to be at the fair. The number of visitors to the Transport and Logistics Fair in 2009 was estimated at 22,000, which is about half as many as at the previous fair in 2006. Was it worth going? Well, yes, in my opinion. Namely, nothing beats meeting customers in such challenging times. Some of them were good current customers and I hope that all the rest were future customers. Best of all, we didn't have to drive all over Finland to follow them, but instead stood at the stand in the most welcoming manner possible. Our own stand was visited by approximately double the number of visitors compared to previous fairs. Is it because there were fewer exhibitors than before? The esteemed customers seemed to have time and also space to explore the stands. So there were a lot of visitors and with that came a lot of feedback, which is positive. Although not all feedback is positive. In any case, all comments are useful in developing our products. A man plus work clothes is not always the most fruitful equation to interpret. The best comments are often heard at the corner table at Teboil, and not when asked objectively. If you don't get even that negative feedback, it's difficult to correct your mistakes or improve your operations. Speaking of development: Our department had also developed in other ways than just its size. Our partner, the Floorball League, organized the opportunity to try, in popular terms, using a ball to hit a radar. Radar, by the way, doesn't arouse much enthusiasm as a device. Usually, having to deal with it means a dent in your wallet and you wish that such a device had never been invented. At least until then, while you blissfully forget the lessons it offers. Well, at the fair, there were literally queues for it from morning to night. The heaviest bets exceeded 150 km/h! According to the authorities, the above readings would have definitely brought you a quick win. Our quick win was a €200 gift card for functional work clothes for the best of every day. Congratulations to the winners and I hope this prize is useful!
