Las Vegas–For the sixth time, professional trade show presenter Andy Saks helped Magnet Productions’ client Citrix Systems, Inc. gather hundreds of leads at a major trade show.
Booked by Magnet, Saks delivered four technical product trade show presentations in rotation for Citrix at the Interop trade show, held at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
One presentation focused on Citrix cloud products, one on mobility, one on networking, and one explained Citrix’s overall value as a business tool. Each presentation ran 8-15 minutes and filled the booth with curious Interop attendees.

Saks used the Earprompter, a professional speaking tool that allows speakers to record presentation content and instructions beforehand, then play back the recording into an invisible earpiece while presenting. Saks also edited all four presentation scripts, to improve their clarity and flow.
One of Saks’s Citrix presentations was photographed by Citrix show management and added to its Flickr Interop 2014 photo set.
Citrix Systems, Inc. is an American multinational software company founded in 1989, that provides server and desktop virtualization, networking, software-as-a-service (SaaS), and cloud computing technologies, including Xen open source products.
As with all previous Citrix bookings, Citrix booked Saks through trade show services company Magnet Productions. Magnet has been producing live trade show presentations for over 25 years and had several presenters, magicians and assistants working for various exhibitors at the show.
Magnet also provided two event staffers, Kecia Cooper and Sara Konecky, for the Citrix booth. They served as crowd gatherers for each booth presentation, scanning over a thousand attendee badges during the 2.5-day show, and helping to fill the booth theater for each presentation.
Citrix has already requested that Magnet Productions book Saks again to deliver trade show presentations at its VM World 2014 booth in August in San Francisco.
