​Athletic Business is, by far, one of the best shows that I have attended. The AB staff provides a truly positive experience, timely communication, and a friendly demeanor. We will always continue to attend the AB Show; it's actually the event that provides us with the highest engagement and leads each year.

It was a very productive trip for me. I ended up meeting with a total of 24 vendors and have already done business with a few, have demo models being shipped from a couple, and intend to do business with a few others.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"After engaging with AB, the qualified leads have grown considerably such that we are looking at increasing our sales staff to handle the volume and the numbers on the back end support that growth.  We are reaching the educational institutions and non-profit organizations at a higher rate and the impact can be traced back to the landing pages links clicked from the digital or print advertising through AB ."
