Why Exhibitors Love PHCC San Diego’s Trades Expo
If you sell into the plumbing, HVAC, or mechanical trades, you already know:
-
Cold outreach is harder than ever.
-
Emails get ignored.
-
Calls get screened.
-
Your reps waste time chasing people who are “just looking.”
At PHCC San Diego’s Trades Expo, everything flips.
For one focused day:
-
Contractors, techs, and owners come to you, ready to learn, compare vendors, and buy.
-
You have face-to-face time with the exact decision makers you want to reach.
-
Your brand stands out in a room designed specifically for this industry.
This event is built so exhibitors like you can network, demonstrate, and close.
