Exhibitor Testimonials

• My experience as a vendor at The Magic City Black Expo was a first for me. I found that it was a well put together, well attended event. The sponsors provided a clean, professional atmosphere to display my product, and worked with me, providing tips that I feel really made my experience successful, as well as enjoyable. I look forward to participating in this event year, after year.

• The Magic City Black Expo is the best exhibition show I have ever participated in. It is a place where any business can showcase their products, services and marketing materials.
  A place to build lasting relationships/partnerships with local business, merchants and potential patrons. If you are a business looking to increase your African American client base,
  the Magic City Black Expo is the place to be. I am looking forward to the 2012 Expo.

• The Magic City Black Expo was truly a first class event. Having traveled to “Magic City” for the first time, coming all the way from Los Angeles, my expectations were met and surpassed. We got great exposure and had a great time. Looking forward to visiting again.

• The MCBE was one of the most influential events for Boldly Gorgeous. We attended as we were just beginning to build our brand. The event placed our product in front such a large number of people that it was a bit intimidating at first, but it turned out to be the best experience possible. We are now more confident, more prepared, and more in charge of our messaging and product delivery. Thanks Meagan! Thanks Darrius! Can’t wait till MBCE 2012.

• Being a sponsor and vendor at the 2011 Magic City Black Expo was a wonderful experience. As a photographer, a majority of my interactions with potential clients take place via the Internet, through email and various social media sites. The MCBE provided me a fantastic opportunity to connect with a large and diverse pool of potential clients on a more personal level. I also had the opportunity to participate in the 100 Urban Entrepreneurs/The Cashflow.com’s 60 second business-pitch competition, which led to my business winning a $10,000 business grant and 8 weeks of in-depth business mentoring with a group of individuals who continue to inspire me daily. I would recommend any entrepreneur looking to take their business to the next-level to participate in the 2012 MCBE!
