NEXT STEP ACTIVITIES AT NPE 2006

West Newbury, MA (August 12, 2006) . . . Next Step Communications, Inc. worked with many new and existing clients at NPE 2006, North America’s largest plastics show. This triennial five-day extravaganza was again held at Chicago’s McCormick Place from June 19-23. Next Step was involved in all aspects of the show including complete booth management and public relations activities. Booth management services were performed for:

-Gammaflux L.P. (South Building, 25’ x 50’ island)

-Entek (South Building, 25’ x 50’ island)

-R&D Tool and Engineering, Inc. (East Building, 20’ x 20’ peninsula)

“Not only do we help companies prepare for NPE, but with these clients, we help in all aspects of their exhibits, from set-up to dismantle,” said Greg Hannoosh, President of Next Step. “Next Step provides turnkey services for companies during the stressful times of tradeshows. Of our many services, one is to help companies by allowing them to outsource all the details of tradeshow management.”

Next Step also handled public relations duties at NPE for an additional five clients (8 total). New products were introduced, as well as press kits for the companies latest announcements. Next Step also arranged for at-show interviews with the key industry press editors. “Because NPE is such a large tradeshow, it is difficult for all companies at the show to be recognized,” said Hannoosh. “We work with the editors throughout the show to make sure that all of our clients get the press that they deserve.”

This was the seventh NPE show for Hannoosh, who has been involved with every NPE since 1988. “This NPE show was a success in many ways. There was a renewed enthusiasm amongst both attendees and exhibitors,” said Hannoosh. “All of our clients are optimistic that they will generate significant new business as a result of this show.”

Next Step Communications is a full-service advertising agency specializing in serving the plastics and packaging industries. Founded in 1996, the company is headquartered in West Newbury, Massachusetts.
