We’ve had an extremely busy first half of October. CI Gear hosted Syspine booths at the SOHO | SME Conference and Expo events in Toronto on October 1, 2008 and in Vancouver on October 15, 2008. These events were aimed at increasing awareness and generating leads from within the small business community.
The turnout was quite promising with enough booth traffic to keep us on our toes the whole day! Between the 2 events, almost 200 SOHO and Small Business leads were collected. We are actively following up on these leads and redirecting them to local VARs.
Thanks to all the VARs who participated both in the Toronto and Vancouver events. Your help in manning the booth and promoting Syspine is greatly appreciated.
Here’s are some pictures from the Toronto show:
