·  When is Sunbelt space selection for the 2012 show?
Sunbelt Builders ShowTM Management has created policies on the accumulation and use of priority points solely for the purpose of rewarding our loyal clients and members for their support of the Texas residential construction industry.  The total number of points accumulated by each Sunbelt exhibitor through the opportunities listed below determines the exhibitor's priority points.  Priority points are used by Sunbelt Management to assign booth space for the upcoming year's trade show.
 
Companies that have exhibited at the Sunbelt Builders ShowTM at any time from 2001 to present are ranked according to accumulated priority points.  All points are kept on file with Sunbelt Management and updated as exhibitor changes occur.  Priority point standings are available upon request.
 
Sunbelt Builders ShowTM Exhibitors may accumulate Priority Points in four ways:
  • By exhibiting in the annual Sunbelt Builders ShowTM.
  • By advertising and partnering with the Sunbelt Builders Show™.
  • By partnering with TAB on individual events.
  • Through TAB Membership.
Exhibitors will receive a packet of Sunbelt 2013 information that will include their accumulated priority points, designed selection time and a preview of the 2012 Show and map.  Booth selection will begin the morning of Saturday, September 15, 2012 in the Show Office at the Austin Convention Center.
 
If you have any questions regarding the calculation of points or your current number of priority points, contact Dave Heiges at (800) 252-3624 or (512) 476-6346.
 
·  How do I find my current booth number?
You can locate your booth number on this website, under Exhibitor Directory, on your invoice or booth confirmation or by contacting Sunbelt staff (800) 252-3624 or (512) 476-6346.
