Dear America’s Beauty Show® Exhibitor Partner:
We thank you for your continued support of America’s Beauty Show, your Midwest Beauty Show®! For 86 years the show owned and produced by your customers, the working cosmetologist, salon owner, school owner and student members of Cosmetologists Chicago, has successfully delivered one of the most respected trade events in the professional salon industry.

Our 2011 event continues the legacy, and we invite your participation now!
A few reminder responses from our 2010 post-show attendee survey (1,100 respondents with a +/- 3.6 confidence level!):

• 77% like America’s Beauty Show at McCormick Place
• 75% who like ABS at McCormick Place are age 25 - 54 . . . highly productive years in a cosmetologist’s career
• 77% spent $150 or more on products at the show . . . 9% spent more than $1,000!
• 80% felt the value of attending equaled or outweighed the cost!

Take the legacy of proven show success you can count on, and add:

• Free direct-ship product drayage – what you sell comes in free
• Historic labor reform – only at McCormick Place, nowhere else in Illinois
• Early Bird Discounts – 8.5% off rates if paid in full

. . . and you have the beauty show deal found nowhere else in our business.

There really is only one Chicago beauty show -- America’s Beauty Show. The show your customers launched, built, dream about and, of course, attend annually.
We look forward to working with you toward the great success of America’s Beauty Show 2011.

Professionally,
