We opted out of Surtex last year for a couple of reasons: the show had declined a bit in size and attendance, but mostly because we felt the previous few shows had been so tightly booked with our regular clients (which IS great fun) that we were not able to meet many new ones at the show - really the most important reason to exhibit. So we just skipped a year. Even given that, right now there is nothing as big as Surtex for art licensors, but you do want to be ready before investing the money.Jim Marcottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12023296085335282304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1637681142357586205.post-2590074280034362182011-07-13T01:15:14.845-05:002011-07-13T01:15:14.845-05:00I've now read every post on your blog.

I was wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing why you decided to do Surtex this year, as opposed to opting out of it last year? I was curious if you thought it was better than year before last when you seemed disappointed. I would love to show there eventually, but wow, it's so expensive. I want to make sure that wherever I eventually choose to show, it's the best choice for my investment.
