which one, that doesn't really narrow it down.I saw one guy bitching about how it hasn't been advertised anywhere, but facebook.
It's not their fault he's been living in a hole and hasn't seen the website or advertising anywhere for it.
Put yourself in the shoes of the vendors… if MHM doesn't have an ad, I also heard they did an article on muskie shows and Michigan wasn't mentioned. If you don't hear about it constantly online, with the exception of "is there a Michigan show this year?" I would be really worried that I'm going to loose money again at this show – AGAIN.
Their website (<url url="[Permission to view this media is denied]
">** you do not have permission to see this link **) was still showing info for the 2011 show until about the second week in January, IIRC.
WAAAY too late, if you ask me. The only place before that that I could find online about the 2012 show was on their Facebook page.

Yes, about the no advertising. Didn't see anything in MHM either or mention. Is there anything to do now to get the word out?
If it hasn't been posted on Michigan Sportsman and Lk St Clair net it should be. Heck, any other forum that you can think of should have it posted as well.
If you're thinking about posting something, most sites are pretty picky about stuff like that and will delete it because it's advertising. The correct approach would be to post something like:

1. Are there going to be more business cards so we can hand them out during the season?
2.Are there going to be flyers like we got with the tickets to the banquet so we can try to get more people to the banquet. If we sign someone up for the banquet on Saturday will they still be in the running for the rod??
I was not able to be a vendor this year as being sick most of the Summer got us behind in Lure orders. We just don't have any product to take there. I had to decide back in September if we wanted in or not so I passed. I have orders from stores all over Canada that will keep us working until June. I will attend at least one of the days just to spend a little money and visit with our guys at the booth. If the Show makes it to year three I will go back as a Vendor. I did well last year but had very little overhead. Mike

I've got cards and brochures w/ member apps. I don't have any flyers for the banquet but I'll get some done before the show… ugh… I still have too much to get done before this show.
