‘Benchmark Collective returned to Bett UK for its landmark 40th anniversary, providing pre-event sales support and onsite rebook assistance to retain exhibitors and secure new business for 2026.’

Of revenue rebooked

‘For Bett UK’’s landmark 40th anniversary, Hyve Group needed a rebook operation capable of matching the scale and prestige of the occasion. With over 600 exhibitors across ExCeL London, the core Bett team needed to focus on key accounts and new business development — not the operational complexity of managing an 18-person rebook team, a busy sales lounge and a live floor plan simultaneously.’

‘Benchmark were asked to provide a team large enough to cover the full show floor, operate the sales lounge, drive new business acquisition and capture valuable commercial intelligence — while maintaining the high-quality, exhibitor-first experience that Bett’’s audience expects.’

What we delivered

  • ‘18-strong Benchmark team deployed across the show floor and sales lounge’
  • ‘Dedicated Rebook Manager and Rebook Manager Assistant overseeing all operations’
  • ‘Sales lounge and live floor plan managed in real time throughout’
  • ‘Dedicated Benchmark new business sales agent driving new exhibitor acquisition’
  • ‘Best pricing and prime stand locations offered to maximise exhibitor commitment’
  • ‘Core Bett team freed to focus entirely on key accounts and new business relationships’
  • ‘Exhibitor feedback and intelligence gathered and fed back to Hyve’’s account management team’
  • ‘73% of revenue rebooked at the 40th anniversary edition’

“What a fantastic rebook!! It is a joy to work with you and the Benchmark team feels like part of the Bett team. More than that, it is the attention to detail that the team brings to the rebook, questioning processes, wanting to improve and the hunger to close every deal. We could not do it without you!”
