PestWorld (NPMA) staffing

PestWorld is the National Pest Management Association's flagship convention and trade show, held October 20–23, 2026 at the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center in Grapevine, Texas (Dallas–Fort Worth area) and known for bringing the pest-control industry together to source products, equipment, and field-service technology. It draws pest-control company owners and operators, branch and operations managers, service technicians, and the manufacturers and software providers who supply them. PestWorld staffing keeps a booth greeting, qualifying, and capturing that operator crowd from open to close, so your sales team stays focused on the buyers who can sign. TSM Agency is a woman-owned, MPI-member talent agency founded in 2005 that has staffed 2,000+ events; we field briefed talent who can carry a credible conversation with pest-management professionals and route serious prospects to your reps.

Why it matters

What PestWorld (NPMA) asks of an exhibitor

PestWorld fills the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center floor with exhibitors showing pest-control products, application equipment, vehicles, and the software that runs modern service routes — and the people walking the aisles are owners, operations managers, and technicians evaluating what to buy for their fleets and teams. That is the challenge it hands an exhibitor: the audience is practical and busy, the conversations turn quickly to cost-per-stop and crew adoption, and the show days are long, so an under-staffed booth loses operators to the competitor with someone ready to talk. With a tightly focused trade crowd, every missed conversation is a missed account. The four roles below each cover a different part of working a PestWorld booth.

Front of the booth

Trade show models for PestWorld (NPMA)

PestWorld trade show models keep the front of your booth open and welcoming to a credentialed crowd of pest-control owners, managers, and technicians who move fast and expect straight talk. Our talent greets and qualifies the buyers coming down the aisles, opens conversations, hands serious prospects to your reps, and keeps the stand looking staffed and credible on a working trade floor. The challenge is a practical, time-pressed audience over long days; we address it with briefed, approachable staff who qualify and route prospects quickly. The outcome: more of the pest-management trade crowd actually engages, and your specialists spend their hours on the operators ready to buy.

Traffic & attention

Promotional models for PestWorld (NPMA)

PestWorld promotional models pull operators off the aisle when your booth is competing with rows of equipment displays and software demos for a busy owner's attention. Our talent drives traffic into your space and converts passers-by — the company owners, branch managers, and technicians scouting products and tools — into scanned, tagged leads: running demo stations, anchoring giveaways and signup moments, handing out spec sheets and catalogs, and holding energy across long show days in Grapevine. Each rep is briefed on your product line and the one action you want every visitor to take, whether that is a lead scan, a catalog grab, or a demo booking. The outcome is higher qualified traffic from the surrounding aisles and far more of it captured instead of walking past toward the next exhibitor.

Brand & message

Brand ambassadors for PestWorld (NPMA)

PestWorld brand ambassadors represent your brand to an audience of pest-control owners, operations managers, technicians, and NPMA member firms who came to evaluate products and technology — and your presence may extend past the booth into demos, training sessions, and industry events around the convention. Our ambassadors are briefed on your products, positioning, and talking points so they stay on-message and credible wherever they appear: embodying the brand on the floor, walking key accounts through demos, and steering traffic from busy zones back to your stand. For a new product or equipment launch, they carry the story the way your own team would, in language pest-management professionals respect. The goal they serve is strong brand recall across the industry's main trade week.

The operational team

Full booth staffing for PestWorld (NPMA)

PestWorld event staffing covers the roles that keep a pest-management booth running well. As your staffing partner we field the complete team: product demonstrators who can speak to application and run repeatable demos of your products, equipment, or software; lead-retrieval specialists trained on Cvent, Compusystems, Validar, Klik, and Bartizan so every operator and manager is scanned and qualified correctly in real time; presenters for in-booth demos and stage moments; bilingual talent for the show's diverse attendees; and a team lead to manage check-in, breaks, and performance across the show. One dedicated account executive scopes the mix to your booth size and goals and runs the team on-site at the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center. The outcome: a booth staffed open-to-close and a clean, complete lead list when the show closes.
