WHITE LABEL EXPO WORLD EXPO - USA - LAS VEGAS 2025

This review and roadmap aim to shed light on our unpleasant, intimidating, and borderline unlawful experiences with White Label Expo and Fortem International. I am providing guidance to other small bu...sinesses that may encounter similar situations and how to navigate them. Phrases You Will Hear: * "I moved an important meeting to take this call." -- Be cautious when you hear this phrase. It's often used to create a sense of urgency, but it may not necessarily indicate genuine interest or commitment. * "We are completely sold out, but we've made room for you. We are converting an office on the show floor for your booth." -- Exercise caution when offered last-minute accommodations. Verify the feasibility of such promises and assess their impact on your participation. * "We thought we were further along in conversations." -- This phrase might be used to pressure you into making quick decisions. Ensure that all commitments and terms are clearly defined in writing before proceeding. * They will offer you easy stuff like as many badges as you want. -- While extra perks can be enticing, don't let them distract you from verifying the core commitments and benefits outlined in your agreement. Ensure that the essentials are delivered as promised. "The Contract:" * This is no more than a terms and conditions sheet. -- Don't be misled by the term "contract." Ensure that you thoroughly review and understand the terms and conditions, seeking legal counsel if necessary. * They will ensure you do not have a copy of it. -- Insist on having a copy of any agreement you sign. A lack of transparency regarding the contract should raise red flags. * IF they make specific promises, have them ALL outlined in the letter -- Do not let any promise be made by a verbal commitment. Make sure that they have to spell out everything in writing Key Observations: * Disappearing Act: After you've signed any form of letter or agreement, be prepared for a decrease in communication from their side. They may make excuses when they start responding, and they will start deflecting to other employees so there is no one narrative or contact. * Relentless Payment Requests: They may aggressively pursue payment, using intimidation tactics and fear to create a sense of urgency. Remember that you have rights and options. Actions to Take: * Write a Clear Termination Notice: If you encounter issues or unfulfilled commitments, write a clear termination notice detailing the reasons for termination. Ensure it covers the specifics of any misleading statements, unmet promises, or misrepresentation. * Save All Communication: Preserve all communication, including emails, messages, and recorded phone conversations, with the involved parties. These records can serve as valuable evidence in case of disputes or legal actions. * Join the Legal Battle: If you find yourself in a situation similar to ours, reach out to burak@grow-business.co.uk, who is partnering with other affected companies to initiate legal action. Conclusion: This negative experience has taken up the last 3 months of my time. I hope that this review and roadmap help you make a better decision before going into business with them and saves you 3 months of time. Voir plus
