Step 4
2 weeks after
Reply to every contact from European Coatings Show within days. Update your pages with the questions you heard most at the stand.
What a chemicals, paints and lab website should show
Technical buyers look for clear product groups, grades and applications, plus data sheets they can download and a direct contact route, both before and after a fair.
Product group pages
Give each product group, such as coatings, pigments or solvents, its own clear page with grades, applications and a visible contact route, so technical buyers can judge fit before the fair.
Accessible safety data sheets
Make safety data sheets and technical data sheets easy to find and download on your site, because chemical buyers often ask for them first and check them before any meeting.
Fair page with QR
Create one page for the fair and link it from a QR code at your stand, so visitors can open it fast on a phone and request a sample.
Prompt follow-up
Scan the business cards of every purchasing manager or laboratory head you meet, note the product they asked about, and send a follow-up with the matching data sheet within days.
