Pat Alacqua & Jane Gentry Announce Innovative Consulting Partnership to Transform the Trade Show Industry
9/26/2023
ATLANTA, GA - Pat Alacqua, the visionary founder of Nth Degree, and Jane Gentry, Principal of JaneGentry & Company, have joined forces to revolutionize the tradeshow industry. Leveraging their extensive expertise, with over two decades of consulting experience both within and outside the industry, they are set to empower tradeshow businesses to not only navigate the current challenges but also strategically position themselves for future success. In the wake of unprecedented challenges such as the ongoing COVID pandemic, supply chain disruptions, a talent shortage, and economic uncertainties, owners and senior executives within the tradeshow sector have been compelled to prioritize short-term problem-solving over long-term value creation. This uncertainty is compounded by the fact that 87% of small businesses in this sector are owned by Gen X and Baby Boomers, who are grappling with questions about their long-term commitment. Alacqua and Gentry bring a wealth of experience, introducing best practices to the tradeshow industry and a profound understanding of its intricacies. Their methodology is finely tuned to focus on the most critical aspects of value creation within a business. Pat Alacqua explains, "Every tradeshow business has its unique DNA. Our Blueprint customizes strategies to match each business's essence. The outcome? Substantial improvements in operational performance, ensuring readiness for success, be it for an imminent sale or future prospects." Setting themselves apart from conventional consultancy models, Alacqua and Gentry adopt a hands-on, collaborative approach. This synergy combines their profound tradeshow knowledge with insights gleaned from diverse sectors, delivering unmatched perspectives and actionable strategies. Their mission is crystal clear - to enhance business appeal and intrinsic value. They don't just offer advice; they are strategic partners committed to maximizing your business's potential. About Pat Alacqua & Jane Gentry Pat Alacqua, a co-founder, and former owner of Nth Degree, played a pivotal role in shaping the tradeshow landscape during his tenure. His groundbreaking work in labor management earned him a place of honor in the Exhibitor Appointed Contractors Association Hall of Fame in 2006. Beyond the tradeshow arena, Pat's Entrepreneur to Enterprise Program and "3Cs Process to Faster Results" underscore his dedication to business growth and leadership mentoring. Jane Gentry has had a distinguished career in Business Leadership, Consulting, Executive Coaching, and Keynote Speaking. Since 1999, she has either managed companies or provided consulting services to enhance growth, profitability, client retention, employee retention, and leadership capabilities. As a trusted CEO Advisor and Management Consultant, Jane assists entrepreneurs and senior leaders in identifying and addressing gaps in strategy, processes, culture, and personnel.
