WHY JOIN MED CORNER AT US SAILBOAT SHOW?
Raise awareness of Mediterranean charter in the US
Annapolis Boat Show is an internationally acclaimed sailboat show, the largest and oldest in-water sailboat show in the world.
Today, close to 130,000 loyal attendees around the world travel to the Chesapeake Bay each year to experience these nautical extravaganzas and charter companies from all around the world exhibit there as a part in Vacation Basin area. The MedCorner tent is a unique opportunity for visitors to educate about sailing the Mediterranean areas, as we held presentations each day of the boat show.
Maximize visibility and have your booth pre-arranged
Fleet operators from Croatia, Greece, Turkey, Italy, Spain and all other Mediterranean destinations are welcome to apply and participate at the major charter show in USA as part of MedCorner, powered by ICE.
ICE team will organize the exhibiting area, leaving the exhibitors only to book flights, airport transfers and accommodation. Med Corner will feature the biggest raffle ever seen in Annapolis; 10 charter weeks will be set as prizes for visitors who leave their email contacts.
Collect contacts directly from thousands of visitors
Even though our efforts are long-term oriented, the first 2016 Mediterranean Corner has produced unexpected direct sales. Despite Hurricane Mathew, more than 1500 visitors visited the MedCorner tent in 5 days, and 20 presentations of the Mediterranean sailing areas were held. We closed with over 1000 email contacts and an overall very positive public impression. In the first year we achieved high awareness about the Mediterranean yacht charter operators.
Reach US investors
This is a well-timed opportunity to start a cooperation with US investors as the USD/EUR ratio is highly favorable and many are thinking about yacht investment. According to statistics, half of the Annapolis Boat Show visitors earn between $100.000 and $200.000 annually, while another 20% is between $250.000 and $1.000.000; a demographic most boat shows can only dream about.
