🏆 Expo Edge Feature — Vendor Wins & Pro Tips

How Darryl Hill and GymBandz Stole the Show at the WA State Fitness Expo

The 2025 WA State Fitness Expo was packed with innovation, energy, and creativity—but one exhibitor stood out above the rest: Darryl Hill, founder of GymBandz by GETYOURMONEY Fitness. Through a mix of high-energy engagement, authentic connection, and pure creativity, Darryl transformed his vendor booth into an experience that people couldn’t walk past without stopping.

1️⃣ He Turned His Booth Into a Competition

Instead of simply displaying products, Darryl invited attendees to join a fun jump-distance challenge using GymBandz. Spectators cheered, athletes jumped farther than they thought possible, and his booth became one of the most exciting attractions on the expo floor. Friendly competition creates instant energy—and Darryl used it masterfully.

🎶 He Created a Multi-Sensory Experience That Pulled People In

Beyond visuals, Darryl brought music, movement, and contagious positivity. The rhythm of upbeat tracks mixed with laughter, conversation, and the sound of bands snapping through workouts made his space feel alive. He literally hit multiple human senses—sight, sound, energy, and emotion—to make people feel welcome and excited to participate.

3️⃣ He Leveraged Social Media Like a Pro

Before, during, and after the event, Darryl shared videos, photos, and shout-outs that showcased his booth, products, and interactions. He tagged wastatefitnessexpo nwfitnessmag and the npcwastateopen repeatedly—making it easy for organizers to re-share his content and amplify his reach. This constant loop of engagement created momentum, exposure, and credibility long after the doors closed.

4️⃣ He Built Connections That Last

Beyond the crowds, Darryl built genuine relationships—with athletes, spectators, and other vendors. His optimism and enthusiasm made collaboration natural. He exchanged contacts, networked deeply, and supported others’ booths—embodying the community spirit the Expo was built on.

5️⃣ He Followed Up and Kept the Buzz Alive

Post-show, Darryl shared recap videos, thanked the Expo publicly, and kept tagging partner pages. When engagement peaks right after an event, those follow-ups keep the spotlight burning—and his consistent posting helped the Expo itself gain even more visibility.
