Remove all "Empty Storage" stickers from previous shows.

Secure your phone when you are not in your booth.

Check age requirements for your convention. if children are not allowed on the show floor, you may need to make other arrangements.

Do not leave booth unattended during move in and move out periods of the show. This is a very vulnerable time for thefts to occur.

Try to avoid displaying merchandise until as close to the actual show opening time as possible.

Make security arrangements for small, expensive prototype items during move in, show nights, and move out. Lock up room, security cages, etc.

Have all exhibiting staff and guests pick up their own badges at registration. If they are in your booth, these people will not have access to the show floor.
