MODEX 2026 staffing

MODEX staffing puts trained booth models, product demonstrators, brand ambassadors and lead-retrieval specialists on your stand at MODEX 2026, the premier biennial supply chain and material handling trade show, held April 13–16 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta. Booth talent greets that decision-maker audience, qualifies purchasing interest, supports live equipment and software demos, and captures leads so your engineers and sales team stay on the conversations that close. A MODEX staffing agency recruits, vets, briefs, and manages that talent locally, so exhibitors get a capable, on-message booth without flying in or housing a crew in Atlanta. TSM Agency is a woman-owned talent agency founded in 2005 that staffs Atlanta shows with local talent trained on your products before the doors open, every booking run through one dedicated account executive.

Why it matters

Staffing priorities for MODEX 2026

The audience makes decisions with real budget authority: supply chain directors scoping a next-generation DC, logistics VPs evaluating automation vendors for a five-year contract, operations managers comparing robotic picking systems side by side. They came specifically to evaluate technology in action - and if your demo is running but no one is at the front of the booth to pull them in, they keep walking to a competitor whose stand is staffed. The four roles below each solve a different piece of that problem.

Staffing brief

MODEX 2026 staffing brief

MODEX 2026 staffing should start with the specifics of the event record, not a generic trade show staffing checklist. Event type: Supply chain, material handling & logistics trade show. Primary industry: Supply chain & material handling. Related categories: Warehousing automation & robotics, Logistics & fulfillment technology. Audience to qualify: Supply chain directors and VPs, warehouse operations managers, distribution center leaders, logistics technology buyers, automation and robotics engineers, manufacturing plant managers, procurement and purchasing professionals, and C-suite executives evaluating material handling systems, warehouse management software, autonomous mobile robots, and fulfillment technology across retail, manufacturing, food & beverage, healthcare, and third-party logistics. Local planning context: Georgia World Congress Center | Atlanta, GA | 285 Andrew Young International Blvd NW. Event positioning: MODEX is a biennial event organized by MHI - the nation's largest material handling, logistics, and supply chain association - and features live, operating equipment demonstrations including working conveyor systems, full-scale robotics, and autonomous mobile robots running on the show floor rather than in static displays. Booth responsibilities: Greet and qualify supply chain directors, warehouse operations managers, and logistics technology buyers moving through the Georgia World Congress Center, run equipment and software demos at the booth, scan and tag leads, and represent the brand to distribution and automation decision-makers. That mix determines whether TSM recommends trade show models, promotional models, brand ambassadors, lead capture staff, demo support, bilingual talent, a team lead, or a lighter front-of-booth crew.

The scale of the floor

Booths at MODEX 2026 compete for the crowd on the floor.

Front of the booth

Trade show models for MODEX 2026

Our MODEX trade show models work the front of your stand - drawing and qualifying the supply chain directors, warehouse operations managers, logistics technology buyers, and automation engineers moving past your space, opening conversations, and keeping the booth covered through every show hour. Sourced locally in Atlanta, they spare you the airfare, hotels, and per-diems a relocated crew would cost, and they're briefed on your technology category before the show opens.

Traffic & attention

Promotional models for MODEX 2026

Our MODEX promotional models pull attention to your space and turn passers-by - the warehouse operations managers, procurement executives, and logistics technology evaluators scoping automation solutions - into captured leads: running giveaways and challenge draws that stop foot traffic, distributing materials, signaling your demo schedule, and holding energy through four full show days. Each is briefed on your technology and the single action you want every visitor to take, whether that's watching a live robot run, sitting for a software demo, or leaving a scanned badge. The outcome: higher booth traffic from the surrounding automation and robotics aisles and more qualified supply chain professionals tagged and followed up.

Brand & message

Brand ambassadors for MODEX 2026

At MODEX your brand competes for credibility with the companies rewriting how warehouses operate - and the buyers who choose automation partners look for substance, case studies, and real operational proof. Our MODEX brand ambassadors are trained on your products, positioning, and talking points so they represent you accurately and confidently to that technically literate audience - embodying the brand on the show floor, guiding supply chain directors and operations managers through live demos and technology walkthroughs, and driving traffic from keynote and seminar areas back to your stand. For launches in autonomous mobile robots, warehouse management software, conveyor systems, or fulfillment technology, they carry the story in language a logistics professional respects. The goal they serve: brand authority and on-message coverage with the exact supply chain directors and procurement leads who control automation investment decisions.

The operational team

Full booth staffing for MODEX 2026

Beyond the front of the booth, a MODEX stand runs on the roles that make it work with live equipment and a high-volume decision-maker audience. As your MODEX event staffing partner we field the whole team: product demonstrators who can run or narrate accurate, repeatable demonstrations of your material handling equipment, software, or robotics system; lead-retrieval specialists trained on Cvent, Compusystems, Validar, Klik and Bartizan so every operations manager or supply chain buyer is scanned and qualified correctly in real time; presenters and emcees for in-booth technology theater and education seminars; bilingual talent for MODEX's international supply chain and manufacturing audience; and a booked team lead to support check-in, breaks, and coverage across all four days. One dedicated account executive scopes the mix to your booth size and goals - we recommend, you choose - and coordinates the booking. The outcome: a booth staffed open-to-close, and a clean, complete lead list when the show ends.

You can also compare CAMX (Composites and Advanced Materials Expo) for another assignment in Atlanta.

For MODEX 2026 we provide the booth talent that draws traffic and captures leads at Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta - trade show models, brand ambassadors, promotional models, product demonstrators, lead-retrieval specialists and registration staff. We don't supply catering, bartenders, wait staff, ushers or booth installation and labor; for those, a hospitality or exhibitor-services company is the right fit.
