I disgree, while a marketing rep at a show should
be familiar with his products and software so that
he can effectively discuss his products. That does
not mean he is going to be aware of every published
report on his product. He should be knowledgable
enough on his products to defend them from perhaps
less then great reviews or be able to admit that
in comparison to other products in that category
they have room for improvement that they are looking
into.
