1st Annual Entrepreneur Expo – Philly Style

ListenLogic was one of the 40-some exhibitors at The Entrepreneur Expo last night at the Science Center in Philadelphia.  The event was presented by Philly Startup Leaders, Inc. and was quite a success!  Hundreds of people stopped by during the 6pm – 9pm event time to browse all the ambitious and exciting ventures of Philly’s entrepreneurs.

Who’s Coming? ListenLogic is! Thanks to Gloria Bell of Red Stapler Consulting, who did most of the logistics, we were featured on The Expo’s website prior to the event.  Check it out!

Table #10! ListenLogic arrived early and grabbed some prime real estate in the exhibit hall, a bleak and empty, drywall-exposed room that quickly turned into a high-energy and crowded, temporary incubator buzzing with chatter as guests began filling up the aisles. I think the event’s high attendance demonstrates the city’s interest in and support of local entreprenuership (I’m sure the $0.00 price helped, too).

Need more business cards! I quickly ran out of business cards as more and more curious individuals stopped by our booth. What attracted them? I have a few ideas… our awesome posters (props to LTL Prints), our awesome name/logo (we got compliments on both!), and/or our awesome selves (that would be Mark, Brian, and I, thank you very much).

“WOW! That’s really cool.” The majority of people who visited the ListenLogic table didn’t just grab a card and jet.  No sir! They stuck around for an average of 3 minutes and 23.7 seconds (this is a guesstimate) talking with us and viewing our “slick” demo, which was LIVE since the hall had speedy WiFi!  I got some great facial expressions and initial reactions in response to our powerful and easy-to-use listening tool.

“This is the best idea I’ve seen all night!” True story! That’s a direct quote from one of our visitors, who talked to Brian. And he didn’t even know him! Promise! And promising! Last night was truly encouraging for us here at ListenLogic.  I mean, we knew we had something pretty great, but you never really know until you throw it to the public and let them chew on it for a bit.  ListenLogic is proving to be quite tasty.

So here’s a big THANK YOU to everyone who stopped by at The Expo… your feedback and support is always appreciated.

Until next time, keep on listening.
