Retailer Member Benefits

AETA Retail Members who attend our Trade Fairs have an opportunity to gain financial benefits that far exceed their investment in dues. 

▪  AETA Bucks Program: Cash Discounts on trade fair orders

▪  Golden Ticket Program One free night at your choice of one of the three host hotels – a $109 value.  Throw-in the complimentary breakfast and the value goes to $124!  If you attend both the Winter and  Summer Trade Shows the Golden Ticket has an annual value of $248 which more than covers the cost of each Retail level of membership.

▪  Raffle Prizes: Retailer members receive double chances to win major prizes (like an all-terrain scooter, big screen TV, I-Pod touch, Digital Camera and Netbook Computer) when they make purchases from AETA member exhibitors.
