The Annual Grainger Customer event was impressive.

Thousands of people all interested in different trades filled the aisles to the brim, utterly fascinated by everything Grainger had to offer.

This year Shawn, our experienced sales manager, and Patrick, our up and coming customer service representative, had enthusiastic conversations with end customers, suppliers, Grainger reps and branch managers about our professional line of screwdrivers.

Everyone was very responsive and genuinely interested in our screwdrivers. After the first day we spoke with hundreds of people. Everyone who was already familiar with Megapro had ALL positive feedback. Great feeling for us to hear.

Day two of the Grainger show saw just as much enthusiasm as day one.

The feedback was awesome and again we saw the product sell itself dozens of times from Grainger reps. Some even brought their friends and colleagues up to the booth, grabbing a driver and demonstrating the features of the product themselves!

That really showed how passionate people are about Megapro and we really get a kick out of hearing them say to each other “You gotta get one of these!”.

Patrick said ‘it makes me feel proud to sell a product that’s so well received. ‘

Tag team. The booth is small and as a result Shawn and Patrick took turns talking to interested people walking by, while the other assisted in a supportive role (ie. handing out literature and demonstrating the functionality of the drivers and accessories).

We met one customer today who owns ALL the Megapro drivers Grainger offers! We applauded and thanked him for his loyalty!

With Grainger going mobile, we asked a couple people to give us a shout out on social media.

The crowd here was really good and really engrossed in everything the show had to offer. And to cap it all off, the lunch was fantastic! Now if only the weather would have cooperated.

We handled out this show flyer at the Grainger Show.
