06/07/04 Convention Business Not Likely to Improve

DallasArena.com reads like Emeril got ahold of it, said "BAM", and "Kicked it up a notch".

Way to turn up the heat, Sharon, loved In her own words with all of the Miller campaign mailers.   It's one thing to know you've been lied to, and quite another to see it in front of you in print.

I started a new job about three weeks ago, working for a company that provides registration, and lead retrieval services to trade shows and conventions.  

Currently, I am working a very large show in Las Vegas.  My next show will be in New York.

In fact, almost all of the exposition management companies that contract with my employer, hold their shows in those two cities.  We all know why, and know that any additional taxes will strike the death blow once and for all.

Having what might be called an inside view of this business, I now believe there is little hope of improvement for Dallas conventions and trade shows.
