BEA 2010 Wrap-Up


By Corinne Liccketto

Smith Publicity had another great show at BookExpo America! Thank you to those who visited our booth and held meetings with our staff to exchange information. We love meeting with prospective clients, current clients and, of course, our industry peers.

We were impressed with the volume of attendees who made it to New York during the new show schedule, which now runs during the week versus the weekend. For those who were concerned that the show was held over two days rather than three, Reed Exhibitions, show owner, announced the good news that BEA 2011 will be restored to its original length.

New to the show this year was the DIY Authors Conference & Marketplace, where our company's leaders, Dan Smith and Sandy Diaz, met with aspiring writers and published authors to discuss how publicity can help them spread awareness about their books. We loved this new addition to the show and hope to participate in an even more organized DIY conference at BEA 2011.

Did you attend BEA 2010? We'd love to hear comments about your show experience!
