Your Invitation to Exhibit at the SDPTA 2017 Fall Conference

November 4th, 2017

Sanford Health Sioux Falls, SD

Dear Prospective Exhibitor,

Get some face time with South Dakota and regional PTs, PTAs, and Students at the SDPTA 2017 Fall Conference!

The South Dakota Physical Therapy Association is pleased to offer your organization several opportunities to increase your visibility in the therapy professional community through exhibiting, break/meal sponsorships, and door prizes in conjunction with our Fall Conference. Over 80 therapists, students, and guests from throughout the region are expected to attend the Pain Neuroscience Education and Evidence in Motion: Management of Neurological Problems, Balance and Falls in the Older Adult courses, meetings and social events. (Please see for additional conference information and official brochure.) We appreciate the tremendous support that our exhibitors and advertisers have given SDPTA in the past and we have a continued emphasis and commitment to making the 2017 Fall Conference an excellent investment in your future. Some exciting vendor opportunities featured this year include:

  1. Vendors will be invited to give a five-minute presentation to ALL course participants Saturday morning before courses start or after the morning break! This will ensure that all participants hear about your organization/product. Vendors are encouraged to be available during registration (7:30-8:00) through the end of the business meeting (3:00 PM).
  1. New This Fall: Vendor Sponsored Door Prize! We are encouraging all attending vendors to bring an item to be entered into a raffle for course participants who visit all vendor booths. This encourages the maximum amount of traffic at your booth.
  1. Social Media: All vendors and meal/break sponsors who have registered by September 10, 2017 will also be featured on the SDPTA Facebook Page!

Ideas to Incorporate into your Exhibitor Opportunity:

Have a booth drawing – Attendees fill out a form or leave a business card for a special prize that you award at your convenience.

Sponsor a conference break or vendor lunch – Your company name will be displayed during break sponsorship near the food/beverage items.

Give away therapy-specific marketing materials – Move beyond the pens and notepads! Ideas include: retractable tape measure, reflex hammer, goniometer, stress ball, hand sanitizer, hand exerciser items, nametag lanyard, pedometer, flash drive, gait belt, long length shoe horn, jar openers, individual packets of exercise bands/tubes, pool noodle, water bottle, bendeez, back massager, hot/cold pack, golf balls….
