RESERVE YOUR BOOTH AT THE Midwest Deer Classic

It's about time! A Fall Hunting Show that's going to rival the size of any of the Midwest spring shows! Why does this make so much sense? If your goal is to sell more product every year, your goal should be to get in front of as many people as possible every year! And that's what we're going to do for you! We're the founders of Illinois Deer & Beer Fest, and since 2019 we've proven that a hunting shows in the fall just make sense!

We're going to bring in a massive crowd of eager buyers, (not just bodies anxious to get out of the house) people that are realizing "hunting season is just around the corner, and I still need to get *insert blank here*". If you're lookin to move some products or promote your service to a building full of outdoorsmen, you should be at this show!

We've built a reputation on creating a distinct marketing advantage by showcasing high-quality, industry-relevant exhibitors that truly resonate with our audience.

Most shows still rely heavily on flyers, radio, local TV spots, and passive social media posts. While those tactics have their place, they are no longer enough to drive meaningful growth or maximize exhibitor ROI. That’s why our marketing strategy is different.

Our focus is intent-based digital marketing designed to reach active buyers, including:

• YouTube and streaming TV ads targeting verified outdoorsmen!
• Facebook and Instagram campaigns focused on proven hunting interests!
• Google Search and Display ads reaching consumers actively shopping for gear!
• Retargeting campaigns that repeatedly bring engaged attendees back!
• Bringing in the right influencers and their platforms to be strong partners!

This is not just about foot traffic—it’s about motivated buyers who are ready to spend money.

We’ve spent a combined 40+ years on the exhibitor side of sportsmen’s expos, 20+ years in marketing outdoor products & services, and lifetimes in the outdoor industry! We understand what actually drives value when choosing a show.

• Qualified buyers, not foot traffic fluff.
• ROI (sales + leads)
• Brand exposure before, during, and after the show
• Show credibility & longevity
• Momentum (is this show growing or shrinking?)
