TESTIMONIALS

HSI Show Productions provides premier shows for a variety of exhibitors.  The best part of exhibiting at both the Christmas Gift & Hobby Show and the Indiana Flower & Patio Show, are the repeat customers that look for us at each show, each year.  They want to know what we’ve got that is new, and they continue to shop with us online and over the phone through out the year.

Show advertising is comprehensive and truthful.  When visitors and exhibitors come to the show, they can find exactly what was advertised or promised.

The show decorations are great and should be commended.  HSI spends a lot of money making the show look good and they expect the exhibitors to do the same.  The staff is very helpful with suggestions, booth grading and awards.

The show staff is very visible and approachable.  They don’t just hide in the show office hoping there aren’t any problems.  They are always on the floor, visiting with exhibitors and show visitors alike. 

The Indiana State Fairgrounds facility and door staff makes move-in and out very easy.  There is good parking even on those days when there are multiple events taking place.

A-Classic Expo Design is a wonderful show decorator to work with.  Their staff is fast, efficient, and very reasonably priced.

But what I like most about the HSI Shows is year after year their shows continue to make us money!  That makes it very easy to return.  I am happy to answer any questions a potential exhibitor have regarding making an investment with HSI.

HSI and the South Bend Chocolate Company make a sweet combination.  Over the past fifteen years they have helped us introduce our products and people to Central Indiana.  Face-to-face marketing has built us into Indiana's chocolate company.

Great staff, great customers, great marketing!!!!

We always open the Christmas season early with HSI and the Christmas Hobby
and Gift Show.  We are always the first to say Merry Christmas with the help of HSI.  I always look forward to the show!

I have been a vendor in both the Christmas Gift & Hobby Show and Indiana Flower & Patio Show for 10 years, and I continue to be a vendor, because of the fantastic results I receive when doing these shows!

I work in direct sales. At the shows I have products available for purchase, but more importantly, I receive leads through the contacts I meet at these events. These contacts bring me additional income through future sales, new customers, and new recruits who wish to join the business. I more than compensate the costs of doing these shows.

Both of these shows are well attended. It is a minimal cost to advertise my business through HSI Productions as compared to radio, television, and other media sources. I meet hundreds of people and I have been able to build up my business at a much quicker pace than many of my contemporaries, because of the exposure I receive at these shows!

I have found the staff at HSI Productions to be very professional and extremely helpful. They always try to accommodate my needs, and are very polite anytime I call.

I would recommend participating in both shows. Many of the people who come through at either show will look for me at the next show. They look forward to seeing me and my new products. I have built relationships with many of the people who come into my booth and they in turn become lifelong customers and refer me to their friends!

If you are interested in moving your business forward, finding new leads and selling your products, then HSI productions will more than fit your needs!

Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoy participating in the Christmas Gift & Hobby Show.  This is the Show that puts me in the Christmas spirit!  The mood is set by all the Christmas decorations, holiday music and entertainment.  We have done this Show for three years and intend on participating every year!  The Show has helped us grow our business by increased sales at the Show every year and continued online sales after the holidays.  Often our Extra Virgin Olive Oils & Balsamic Vinegars are purchased as gifts.  The people who receive our products then become regular customers.  Thank you for all the advertising and work you and your team do to make this Show a success for us!

"The Indiana Christmas Gift and Hobby Show has consistently been a top venue for us. We are always impressed with the crowds, the quality vendors and specifically with the HSI management team.  The staff is very professional, pays very close attention to detail before, during and following the event. They continually strive to make each show bigger and better than years past and it pays off in the success of this show.  We highly recommend it to everyone!"

"What I like about the Christmas Show is that the people aren't just there to take a walk.  They are actually there to buy things.  We actually ran out of a few fragrances of our soap.  The booths all look so beautiful with the draped backgrounds and carpeted floors, and the stuff people are selling is really wonderful.  Best of all, it is really fun to go to.  I love how there's always something going on at the stage."
