Today we have another episode of our “Is It Worth It, Charlie?” series. In it, Charlie talks with Patricia Beets, co-founder of Dell Cove Spices & More Co., about whether or not it’s worth it to attend a trade show!

Listen along to hear Patricia and Charlie talk through the questions that so many food founders consider when deciding whether to attend a trade show, such as:

❓ How do I even quantify the ROI for a trade show?

❓ What is a realistic timeline for the potential payoff from a trade show?

❓ Which samples do I bring? How do I hire help for staffing the show?

❓ Plus more!

By the end, Patricia has a clear idea of her next steps forward!
