Exhibiting at CAI's National Conference and Exposition

As a provider of goods and services to the community association market, you look to CAI for one major ingredient to your marketing mix: access! Exhibiting at CAI's annual conference gives you personal access to hundreds of professional managers, management company executives, community association board members, and industry professionals that you can't get anywhere else on a national basis.

The conference provides ideal opportunities to meet, network, brand, and sell your products and services. The Exhibit Hall is traditionally open for two days. While most attendees are eager to visit with our vendors, we facilitate traffic by providing lunch on both days in or near the Exhibit Hall. In addition, we close down virtually all sessions, meetings, and activities during exhibit hours to provide a potent, high-traffic exhibit opportunity.

There's no better way to make connections and build customer loyalty than face-to-face meetings with industry leaders who buy and recommend the purchase of products and services just like yours.

Grab some prime real estate while you can. The National Conference and Exposition is held in the spring of the year—and it's the only one of its kind on a national scale.

Here's what two regular exhibitors wrote following recent National Conferences:

CAI's conferences have it all." —Ezana Asfaw, Kevin Davis Insurance Services, Los Angeles, CA

"The national exposure we have gained through exhibiting with CAI has helped launch our product to the next level."  —Rebecca Bloomquist, Reserve Analyst Software, Vernon, AZ
