Seat Back Pockets Keep Conference Attendees Away From Trash Barrel

Posted by Steve Hall · Thursday June 14, 2007

Pity the poor conference attendee. At every turn, they are bombarded with useless handouts that, two feet later, end up in the trash barrel. Or, worse, they find themselves on every email list known to man after leaving the conference. Rather than foist this crap on attendees in a manner that’s annoying and far too easy to ignore, why not provide them something useful they won’t want to toss as soon as they come into contact with it?

At a recent media conference held in Tel Aviv, Israeli retail fashion chain H&O had the right idea when it created seat back mounted “chair vests” complete with pockets filled with bottled water, a snack bar and the reatailer’s catalog, all easily stowed in front of a captive audience without a trash barrel in sight. Come on conference sponsors, take a hint from H&O and give your prospective customers something they can actually use.
