— The TRADES Field Desk

Have a great story to tell?

Bring TRADES to where it's happening. Book the team for your next conference, company event, trade show, grand opening, leadership summit, dealer meeting or industry gathering. We show up. We find the people. We capture the stories.

You make the story. We'll make sure it gets told.

Interviews

We find the people worth hearing from and get their stories told right.

Photography

Documentary coverage of the floor, the crews and the moments between sessions.

Field notes

What was actually said, written up the way TRADES writes everything.

Video

Short cuts from the floor, built for the way people actually watch them.

Social

Posts while it's happening, not three weeks after the booths come down.

Event recaps

One piece that tells the story of the whole event, start to finish.

Print features

The strongest stories carry into a numbered issue, on editorial merit.

Where the desk sets up

  • Conferences
  • Trade shows
  • Company events
  • Grand openings
  • Leadership summits
  • Dealer meetings
  • Award nights
  • Manufacturer events
  • Technology conferences
  • Retreats
  • Industry gatherings
  • Training weeks

Coverage is editorial work, not advertising. We decide what's worth telling and we say so plainly — booking the desk buys our attention and our craft, never a guaranteed verdict. Anything a sponsor pays for is labelled as partner content. How that line works.

Book TRADES

Something worth talking about?

We'll bring the notebook. Tell us the event, the dates and who's going to be in the room, and we'll come back with what the desk would cover and what it costs.
