In downtown Indy the whole show is walkable under one roof the activation that owns the skywalks owns the week.
Indianapolis promotional models are the brand talent who work a uniquely connected downtown — drawing attendees across the convention campus, running sampling and demos, and converting an enthusiast-heavy crowd into trial and captured leads. TSM Agency staffs them from a local Indianapolis roster matched to your brand and briefed on the single action your program needs, so you keep a fly-in crew's travel costs out of the budget. The Indiana Convention Center is linked by enclosed skywalks to more hotel rooms — 4,719 — than any other convention center in the nation, with 566,000 square feet of exhibit space (Visit Indy). (For the wider Indianapolis market and full-team staffing, see our Indianapolis event staffing hub.) TSM Agency is woman-owned, founded in 2005, MPI-affiliated, 5.0-rated on Google, with 2,000+ events staffed.
Indianapolis has a layout no other convention city quite matches: the Indiana Convention Center, Lucas Oil Stadium and thousands of hotel rooms are all stitched together by enclosed skywalks, so during a big show — Gen Con, FDIC, PRI — attendees live inside one connected footprint for days. That concentration is a gift if you staff for it: the same crowd passes through the same corridors again and again. It also means a passive booth gets walked past dozens of times without ever being engaged. Promotional models turn that repeated proximity into repeated chances to pull people in.
Because Indy's crowd circulates through a connected campus all week, our promotional models work the flow, not just the booth — drawing attendees off the skywalks and concourses into your space, running sampling and demos, and re-engaging the familiar faces who keep passing through. On the show floor they keep your stand active and on-message for famously enthusiast and trade audiences; around downtown they staff hotel-adjacent activations, sampling near Georgia Street, and mobile-tour stops across the metro — each briefed on your product and the one action you want, from a sample to a scan to a sign-up. They know the connected downtown cold, hold their energy across multi-day shows, and stay until close, never an early walk-off. Hosts, emcees and bilingual talent slot in for bigger programs.
The Indianapolis payoff: a footprint that turns a connected, repeat-traffic downtown into compounding trial and a deep lead list.
The outcome: more of the Indianapolis floor stops at your booth — and your team stays on the buyers ready to talk.
