Attachment Parenting Conference

I am going to have a table at an Attachment Parenting Conference. I will be selling my baby wraps, as well as marketing the other aspects of my birth business (birth/postpartum doula, childbirth ed, belly casts, etc). I wanted to have a tri-fold poster board with information, pictures, etc.

Any words of wisdom for grabbing attention and promoting in an effective manner? This will be the first time trying something like this

We've discussed baby expos/seminars before, here's couple of the links, you might find so neat ideas there. There's a lot more than just these, so feel free to search around with different keywords.

As far as attention grabbing...hmm...pictures will do that, and lots of color, something moving/music plaing (if appropriate), maybe demos of something...

I know that there are some ladies here with lots of experience in this area, I'm sure they'll be able to provide you some great pointers!
