There’s a reason why inventors go to tradeshows multiple times. Back from the National Hardware Show (NHS), the International Builder’s Show (IBS), and the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in LAS VEGAS, Michael King and co-host, the Inventor Lady, Rita Crompton will discuss “Success at Tradeshows” with Dave Fegel, winner of Retail Choice Award at NHS for Clean Can Solutions, Steve Boden, inventor of TV SoundScoopZ, and product expert Michael Miller.
