“The Log Home Shows always draw good, qualified prospects who are very serious about moving forward with their plans. They do an excellent job in advertising to promote their shows as well as catering to the attending customers and exhibitors. We’re thrilled to have Ed Erickson and Paul “Tex” Patterson in the log home industry, and we’ll continue to work with them.”

—Tom Gothel, Network Service Coordinator/Regional Sales Manager, Kuhns Bros. Log Homes

“Crowds in Roanoke (2008) were amazingly strong. We’ve had a long relationship with Ed and Paul, and they always do a great job. I believe in these guys.”

—Sandy Bennett, Blue Ridge Timberwrights

“We were well pleased with the high traffic and very impressed with the quality of the consumer. Roanoke was one of the best shows we have exhibited in over the last few years.”

—Winston Johnson, Owner, Highlands Log Structures

“For an exhibitor, The Log Home Shows are hassle-free. I know exactly what to expect before I get there, and when I show up, they know my deal. As a furniture company, we make deliveries during shows, so we have special needs such as access to a loading dock and a place to park trailers. I know I won’t have to worry about any of it. Paul (Patterson) and Ed (Erickson) are very involved from setup to teardown, and they bring in a good customer base with their advertising campaign—TV and radio spots, newspapers, Internet, the whole bit, and every show the same. The Log Home Shows deliver the complete package.”

—Tommy Mitchell, CEO, Rocky Top Log Furniture

“I like the scope and flexibility of their shows. Always very accommodating to the exhibitors, juggling your floor space or whatever you need, they also have an open mind, bringing new ideas to new people in different venues and new markets. I’m further impressed by their friendliness and hospitality, the way they bring the exhibitors together, above and beyond what anybody else does, and their overall responsiveness—proper booth layout, follow-up calls after shows, things like that. They’re always looking for ways they can save their vendors money, instead of just how they can make money. They’re good people, and we love ‘em!”

—Robert Barker, Sales Development Manager and Dealer Development Manager, Golden Eagle Log Homes

“Our experience in Roanoke was outstanding. Traffic was brisk at our booth for the duration of the event, and our sales officers were very pleased with the contacts they made. We look forward to returning.”

—Justin Cruise, Marketing Manager, Farm Credit of the Virginias
