I personally think there will be some effects from the badge reductions and the answer will not be a happy one for many dealers. I would want to have someone with me at the NSCC just to watch my table/booth and not be a lone wolf leaving especially is my material is as good as the person's who suffered that terrible loss.
I also think there will be a reduction in dealer to dealer sales on Tuesday which for many dealers makes their whole show. Alsso, the extra badge at the NSCC would get me more backup as the two most dangerous times at a show for vendors are load-in and break down.
I have said this on webcasts and I have a ton of respect for the promotion skills of Joe, Jimmy and their teams but I think this wholesale reduction of badges is a mistake and there are probably better ways around this

While I appreciate the sentiment, we still get two badges per booth. it's not like we're being asked to do the show solo and hope our neighbors are willing to keep an eye on things if necessary.
