As spring fades and summer quickly approaches, it’s time to prepare for the upcoming months. For most, summer reminds individuals of spending quality time with friends and family, vacations, or even beach trips. However, if you’re in the fashion industry, you know that the summer season hosts multiple tradeshows to prepare for. Whether you’re attending Pre-Coterie in New York, MAGIC in Las Vegas, or other shows, you’ll have your hands full with prepping and traveling.
Tradeshow can be intense and a bit overwhelming, especially if you’re an exhibitor. Not only do you have to pack your clothing items, set up an organized and interesting booth, but you also have to worry about getting the most out of your ROI. Selling your items and getting prospecting buyers is your number one priority. However, when it comes to manually fill out orders it can be rather tedious. It’s vital that you do not lose your line sheets because you’ll misplace valuable information that would hinder sales and business growth. Order sheets can also be time-consuming. Once your client fills out their orders manually, you’ll have to enter all that data once you get back to your office from the tradeshows.
As a fashion entrepreneur, it better to be prepared. That’s why we recommend using the RemoteLink app, brought to you by AIMS360.

We all know how unreliable internet services can be at tradeshows. With everyone using the same, “Exhibitor WiFi” it can be sluggish.
