Save money on return shipping — leave a little something behind to aid Atlanta PAWS! Exhibitors can save money on return shipping while donating to a good cause. AVMA has partnered with PAWS Atlanta to collect in-kind donations to Atlanta-area shelters. PAWS Atlanta will be available at the close of the convention to collect any unwanted items from exhibitors. These items will be put to good use at their adoption center.   Save time and fill out your downloadable donation form in advance. PAWS will provide you with a tax deductible donation receipt upon acceptance of your item(s). Attendees can also stop by the AVMA Pavilion to donate items for PAWS Atlanta.

Exhibitor Tips and Tricks Placing structures, tables or display walls on the perimeter of your booth can stop attendees from visiting your exhibit. Make sure your booth is barrier-free. Train your booth staff to create an engaging environment. Cell phones, laptop usage and eating in your booth make attendees feel that you are too busy for them. Create a welcoming booth design and a sales plan for your representatives to make the most of your exhibiting dollars!
