Staffing at the Baird Center for IAEE Expo! Expo!
IAEE Expo! Expo! 2026 takes place at the Baird Center (formerly Wisconsin Center) in downtown Milwaukee. TSM Agency covers the Milwaukee market as part of our national staffing network. We’ll coordinate local staffing for your IAEE exhibit and ensure your team is briefed, professional, and ready for an audience of events industry insiders. Book your IAEE staffing team at least 6–8 weeks in advance.
Navigation Tips
IAEE Expo! Expo! is attended by event professionals who have seen every type of trade show presentation imaginable. Your exhibit needs to demonstrate quality at the same level you’d expect from a premium vendor. Your TSM staff will be briefed specifically for this audience — professionals who value operational excellence, responsiveness, and genuine product knowledge. First impressions count double when your audience does this for a living.
Why Professional Staffing Stands Out at IAEE Expo! Expo!
The IAEE audience is comprised of event professionals — people who book, build, and manage trade shows for a living. They evaluate exhibitor staff with expert eyes. TSM Agency is a natural fit for IAEE because we are part of the trade show industry: we understand the buyer, the language, and the standards of quality that this audience expects from every vendor interaction. Our staff represent your brand with the professionalism the IAEE community demands. Read more about TSM Agency’s national [trade show staffing services](/service/trade-show-models/).

I had to take the time to post this review. Simply stated, the TSM Agency is the best model staffing agency we have ever worked with. Our account executive, Caryn, was prompt and professional. We only had two days to staff two models. We came to an agreement and had our models in the same day I initially contacted them.

The TSM Agency is our go to model staffing company. Our account executive is so easy to work with and knows the industry inside and out. But what really separates TSM from the other companies we have worked with in the past are their models. TSM Agency trade show models are just the best. When you talk to the girls you can tell TSM treats them well and that they are very loyal to the agency. The girls always come prepared and on time. They are a joy to work with and their smiles are infectious! I can’t say enough. It makes me very happy to see our competitors enviously looking at us because our trade show models are doing such a great job and our booth is always packed.

Keila and Kirsten were exactly what we were looking for from our trade show models. For our previous show we flew a couple of employees to work the show and, no offense to them, we will never do that again. Professional models were far better at generating leads for us; the entire reason we did this event is Las Vegas. Our models were well prepared, dressed professionally, kept up an amazing energy during every day of the show and help us demo our products. Caryn, our TSM Agency account executive, did an amazing job and provided the perfect models.

Thank you TSM Agency! We have never received so many leads as we did this year at the World of Concrete Show. Our models were great and we want to staff the same girls next year. They performed above and beyond our expectations. Thank you TSM!
