Miami is a bilingual, international trade show market where the booth has to look as good as the beach outside. Purple Exhibits staffs the Miami Beach Convention Center, Brickell and Doral hotels and the Art Basel week activations with local brand ambassadors, models, hostesses and booth reps at a flat $85 an hour per person. Spanish is standard on our Miami roster, Portuguese is common, and we plan call times around the causeways between the beach and the mainland.
