Tip #21: Using Twitter has endless opportunities for advancing your business, but did you know you can quickly choose certain Tweets to also send to your Facebook page?  If you simply include #fb at the end of your tweet, it will automatically go to your Facebook page as well!

Tip #22:  Some exhibitors have a few shows in Europe and often ask about the best way to deal with the voltage change. Unless they have several shows that would justify the expense of European modified lights that accept the 220 volt currency it's easier to get a couple of power bars and voltage converters to go with them. Just make sure when you purchase the converters, that are in fact VOLTAGE converters. I once made the mistake of getting PLUG converters which do not compensate for the voltage change, just the shape of the plug. Let me tell you, my wife will never let me forget about the hair dryer and curling iron that went up in smoke!
