Vendor Information Page
Exhibitor
Being a book fair vendor is the best direct marketing your company can do. Many home school families do their shopping for the upcoming year at this book fair. Attendees will have ample opportunity to shop during the course of the convention.
Each booth space will be 8 ft. wide and 9 ft. deep. You may reserve as many as you need. These spaces are $150.00 for the first table and $125.00 for each table after that. Extra tables for use within the booth spaces are available for an additional $25.00 each. If you require electrical hookup, you will need to indicate this on your registration form.. There is a $20.00 fee for electricity.
Vendor Workshop
As a exhibitor you may want to present a Vendor workshop. These workshops provide an avenue for showing, demonstrating, or explaining what you have to offer to the home schooling family. The workshops are 50 minutes long and are available on a first come, first serve basis. For the last several years, all the workshop time slots have been used. If you would like to set up a workshop, please include the title and a short description with your request. Workshops are $40.00 each and space is limited.
Syllabus Ad
The convention syllabus is a tool that many schooling families will use for years. The , as well as the notes taken, will help refresh them each time they open it. Many families use the syllabus as a resource for the entire time they home school. Veterans will show their syllabus to new home school families as they begin to home school. As you can see, it would be hard to predict exactly how far reaching and effective your ad could be. What would it cost for your company to reach home schooling families across the state of Louisiana? Looking at the largest ad as an example, at $200.00 for the back cover, the cost of reaching 500 families would be less than .40 cents each. This cost covers the printing and delivery of your ad to each family. It would be hard to find a better or less expensive way to reach home schooling families with your information.
Emailing a high quality jpeg file is the easiest way to send your ad. To meet the syllabus printing date, we must ask that all information be received no later than March 31, 2010.

1/8 page ad 2 ¼ inch high x 3 ½ inch wide -
