17 Oct Important Ohio Country Show News

Ohio Country Dealers,

First, thank you for your support. We hope today finds you making sales, connecting with customers, and enjoying the show.

We believe strongly in the future of the Ohio Country Antique Show, and we are committed to building it into something special—not just for the dealers exhibiting today, but for the next generation of collectors and customers.

Our next show is in April, and we have two simple requests that will make an enormous difference in our ability to grow this event.

1. Commit to April Today.

If you believe in the future of Ohio Country as much as we do, we’re asking you to demonstrate that commitment by signing your contract and leaving a deposit before you leave today.

Here’s why it matters: Every hour we spend chasing dealers between now and April is an hour we aren’t spending chasing customers.

Your commitment today allows us to spend the next six months doing what we do best—marketing, promoting, and bringing new buyers through the doors. And not just the familiar faces we’ve known for decades. We want to introduce an entirely new generation to Americana, folk art, primitives, and the extraordinary things you sell.

As an added incentive, every dealer who leaves a deposit today will be entered into a drawing for FREE BOOTH RENT at our April show! We’ll draw the winner immediately after today’s show closes.

Help us help you.

2. Help Us Recruit the Next Generation of Dealers.

If you believe, as we do, that traditional Americana shows deserve not just to survive but to thrive, we need your help spreading the word.

We’re asking every exhibitor to recruit just ONE fellow dealer to join us in April.

Think about what that would mean. A stronger dealer lineup creates a stronger show. A stronger show attracts more customers. More customers create more sales. And more sales make this an event that dealers cannot afford to miss.

Jenkins & Company has the experience, resources, marketing reach, and commitment to make Ohio Country a premier destination for Americana collectors and dealers. But no promoter, regardless of size or resources, can build a great show alone.

We can create the opportunity. You help create the show. Together, we bring the customers.

We aren’t interested in simply preserving the past. We’re interested in building a future for the things we all love.

Thank you again for believing in Ohio Country and for being part of its beginning.

Let’s make Ohio Country one of the premier Americana shows in America.

Matt, Emily, Jon
and the entire Jenkins & Co. Team
