ILVE have participated in DMG homeshows consistently for over 15 years now and find them to be amongst the more organised, beneficial and targeted shows that we participate in over the calendar year. The sales leads and generation we get from the show filters through long after the show has finished and most of the time is converted into real sales. The type of consumer that is attracted to the show is definitely targeted to the consumer that we sell to and market towards. We find that the shows are a great networking tool and because DMG consumers are loyal to the shows it gives us a chance to re establish a relationship with our consumers after they have purchased and in many cases they bring along in a friend or relative to purchase in the following year as well. As I see it the future with DMG and ILVE is strong!

We do the Sydney Show because it is the only Sydney Show that produces the
results that we need to Brand our products and make consumers aware of our
products in a directed, focused, positioned way that is a cost effective media. While we are usually the only large window company involved it is a way to set up our next year for awareness by the consumer to either contact us when they are ready to build or to visit one of our showrooms to view more intensively our wide range of products. The quality of 2008 Show from our perspective was that the trade component was much better then previous but the quality and depth of the consumer traffic was way up. On the Thursday/Friday this quality was very evident while on the weekend the volume of traffic was so intense it made for just pandemonium. We even ran out of brochures at one stage on Sunday such was the traffic.

The Modern Group spends a lot of money each year branding our company so
exhibiting at the HIA Home Show is a very important factor in reaping the benefits of this spend. The quality of customers gained from the show was proven in our results over the four days as consumers are there to seriously consider improving their homes. We averaged speaking to around 40 people per hour that passed by or approached our stand. Being in the home improvement industry there are a lot of competitors out in the market and to have the opportunity to be face to face with people and demonstrate the quality of our work and service is a huge bonus. The Modern Group have been an exhibitor
at the HIA Home Show for the last 20 years and will continue to do so as the
organisation, assistance, support and overall well presented layout are a very
positive factor for businesses considering to exhibit in the show..

I want to pass on Clarendon Homes' appreciation to DMG and the HIA Sydney Home Show. The show generated a great opportunity to create brand recognition within our target markets with as many as 95% of attendees passing our stand. In total we had 27 direct leads from the Home Show, which is an outstanding accomplishment for a home builder in four days, especially in the current
market.

The Sydney Home show is very important to Vista as it promotes our company
& products. This year the quality of customers who visited our stand was the best we have ever had. Overall the 2008 Home show was a huge success for Vista.

We found the mix of exhibitors represented at this show to be very complimentary and represented great value to the general public interested in
renovating, building or simply looking to update any area of the house Internally or externally. Kleenmaid found the show to be very beneficial in producing sales during the Home Show trading days and also for future lead generation which we are still converting into business today. We look forward to participating in more
events down the track.

Home Show manager - Kleenmaid
